  2. Wow...great geometric shapes here Ivan...it was only stripes and flowers for so many years, and now look at how many great patterns are available to us.

    Great Post- nice of you to give us some colour as well as those great black and white fabrics.

  3. Hi Ivan
    Thank you for checking out my new blog and the very nice comments. Your blog is fabulous and full of great information. I like the new fabrics for Summer, especially the green cane parrot and the petal pink and green stripes... and I gotta vote for the pink giraffe pattern too!

  4. I like the houndstooth one, no maybe the orange stripe is better, hmmm. . . I can't decide. I covered some outdoor chairs in a black/white pattern last spring and just loved them out in my deck all summer long!

    I LOVED your comments on my last post!!! They made my comments even more interesting for everyone else!! You rock!

  5. These are tons of fun - I have to say I am a big fan of that gazebo fabric and I am mildly osessed with the coral family of colours lately so I think that has to be my favorite but they are all great!

  8. I like the last one, the Kravet fabric.

    I am having my deck redone this week, while I am away, and I trying to decide what kind of new deck furniture to get (teak or that all weather wicker stuff). There are so many beautiful outdoor fabrics these days, I don't know why anyone would buy the standard cushions that can be purchased at Crate and Barrel and such - maybe for ease or simply lack of knowledge about all of the fabric options out there.

  9. I think I want to design 14 outdoor areas and use them all !
