    Matching fabric
    Hi, we purchased these pillows from Pier1: http://www.polyvore.com/cgi/img-thing? out=jpg&size=l&tid=10097877

    We really want to make matching drapes with this fabric (or something very similar). We tried calling Pier1, but they cannot sell us this fabric and said the manufacturer that makes it is only allowed to sell it to Pier1.

    We have looked all over and cannot seem to find the fabric elsewhere.

    If you know where we might be able to purchase this fabric or something close, that would be very much appreciated.

    Thanks,
    Eric

    What about a plaid that uses those colors? I'll check a couple of sites I know about and will get back to you. Tell me about your furniture and wall colors meanwhile.

    I was thinking something like this --

    Elegant Plaid Curtains, Elegant Plaid Curtain - Country Curtains®

    Here's fabric by the yard from the same site --

    Devon Stripe Fabric

    Or this --

    Sunset Plaid Fabric

    We would be open to other patterns with those colors.

    Our walls are a light / pastel yellow. We have a grey leather L sectional and a fabric bluish-teal swivel chair. It is the exact blue color which is in the pillow. The chair can become a bit overwhelming as it is all that blue color, so we really wanted a fabric with just a little bit of the blue color, but more yellows, oranges, reds, etc to bring in brighter colors as well. We also liked the white in the pillow background which gave the light airy look I am hoping for.

    Thanks!

    I posted links to plaid drapes and also fabrics that include those colors. I can search for florals if you like. I don't think a check or swirl (paisley?) would work, and a solid would be too stark. Let me know if you want me to continue.
