Ebay: Friday's Fabric

image via here 
I love Los Angeles clothing designer Trina Turk especially her line of fabrics for F. Schumacher.  While, I am definitely drawn to the boldness & color of her fabrics, it is the patterns that I really adore .  Suited for any room, I would particularly love to use her fabrics in an outdoor space - they just scream summer, beach & moijitos to me.  The crafty side of me would love to use her patterns as a stencil on storage boxes, a wall, a table or even a rug.

Since,  we don't officially have a patio or deck with some hip furniture, I might just settle on buying yard or two and making some fun placemats, napkins or a table runner.  Some of my favorite patterns:
Zebra pattern in orange
Trellis pattern in pool
Arches pattern in bamboo
Santorini pattern in marine

Just so happens I spied some Trina Turk fabric on ebay starting at $9.99!  Trellis pattern here , here and here.   Arches pattern here .  Pisces pattern here .  Paradise pattern here .   Enjoy the weekend and happy bidding!

  4. I love all these fabrics! The colors and patterns are perfect for spring.

    As for your question about the towels I used for my Darby inspired dishtowels, I made some from terry cloth that I bought from an etsy seller (Darby recommended). But that was too time consuming. Yesterday I bought some microfiber kitchen towels from home goods for $3.99 for 4, and there are advertised as lint free - hopefully they'll do the job. Thanks for commenting on my blog!
