Question:

I have two club chairs and a sofa that I will be recovering. For the club chairs, I would like to use either Dalia or Brigitte fabric by the yard. I was wondering if you could recommend several coordinating fabrics for both of these. I will need fabric for the body of the sofa, piping on it, and pillows. I will also need coordinating window treatments. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Just a sidenote … I have a 3-year-old, so the sofa fabric needs to be something pretty durable. Thanks!

Answer:

We recommend the Brigitte Fabric for your club chairs. This pattern will complement the Brick Pomeroy or Petite Fleur de Lis (in Wheat) that we suggest for your sofa. Both have a textured print to help hide spills and stains.

Accent fabrics in Khaki or Butter Twill will pull it all together, and then you could punch it up with a pillow or two in our Light Cheetah.
