Bright colorful textiles and fabrics make me swoon …
I kinda wish I was this woman …

Sometimes I like to just dig around in my boxes of swatches. It makes me happy.
Yesterday I had the pleasure of spending the day with my little man Kyle at the Art Institute.
(Lunch at Terzo Piano on the rooftop of the Modern Wing … beautiful and delicious!) |
While there are so many sources of inspiration there, one of the exhibits we checked out was of vintage kimonos. The fabrics took my breath away …
First up was what you typically expect when you think of kimonos …
But as we moved through the room they just kept getting more beautiful and I was struck by just how modern some of the prints were … these women were way ahead of their time!
Wouldn’t this make fabulous curtain panels?
Can you even imagine the price per yard?
