Made to Measure Curtains

The Wild Garden Collection includes the pink and orange Fine Foliage. Because it is multicoloured, you may use any of the four colours in the design as complementary coordinates to add finishing touches to your lovely curtains, like a contrasting leading edge, flop-over frill, or reverse lining. Plain Linen Union - Day Lily, Dotty Check - Lily Pink, Soft Raspberry, Ochre, and some examples of coordinating fabrics! Another option is to use opposite colours that are already present in your room. As you can see in the image below, this opulent dining room features a dark Lichen green that is echoed in other areas of the space, making the leading edge a subtle yet perfect finishing touch to this room scheme.

Vanessa's Scandinavian Woven Collection now includes this Lapland Stripe colourway, which combines pinks and greens. She enjoys using these colour combinations in both her home, and on photo shoots. The striped design would work well in a room with low ceilings, helping to elongate the space creating a higher looking feel to the room. It's also double-sided and ideal for unlined curtains since, unlike our other printed fabrics, the colours are woven in rather than dyed.

The category for best-sellers features two Wild Fern designs from Vanessa's Forest Collection. This geometric design has been especially popular for curtains hanging in modern or contemporary homes, as seen in a different Ochre yellow colourway below.

One of Vanessa's first designs from her Hand Printed Collection is the Life and Eternity Detail, however, this deep Cornflower blue colourway is a more recent addition. This pattern looks amazing on curtains when used as the primary fabric, but you can also use it as a leading edge if you'd rather because of its small pattern repeat. If you choose the latter, we would advise putting it next to a fabric with a Cornflower blue background. Cow Parsley, Little Fern, Sow and Scatter, among many more, are examples of this. Alternatively, anything in the pink, red, and orange colour palette would be a great place to start if you wanted to add a contrasting colour to your curtains. Below, although in a different colourway, gives you a great visual representation of how well this fabric works as curtains. 

Last but not least, the Little Fern features cream ferns that stand out against the rich Lichen green background. Even though the small pattern repeat could seem overwhelming as curtains in a space, once they're hung, it immediately becomes a prominent highlight and focal point! Below is an example of this in a different colourway.
