Modern Panels

I promised myself that I would try to write in this every other day, but then the green death descended upon my family.  By green death, I mean snot.  I know, TMI, but I can't explain it a better way.  High fevers, snotty messes, and coughing up a lung.  I blame kindergarten germs for all these lovely illnesses we've been getting lately.  But anyway, I lost a week in there amongst the sickies.  Then I ended up sick.  Good times.

Another one of my recent projects was to create panels for someone's living and dining room.  She absolutely fell in love with some fancy schmancy fabric and came to me to get it.  I really like it too.  Here's a pic



We only could get enough fabric for her living room.  We were hoping to get more from the factory in Turkey, but that didn't happen.  The company discontinued the fabric.  Evidently, the yardage we got was the last of it.  Kinda bummed we couldn't get it all, but kinda glad that we did get some.  And I am glad we did.  They are so cool.

Here's the panels hanging in my office
Yes, I am very professional.  Ladder is still out there is a huge mess on my desk.  I'm too busy for such nonsense.  Also notice, this fabric looks way darker than the sample online.  Always order a swatch.  You just never know.
And here they are installed.



I'm partial to modern, and love these.  Even like that they have a little "bling" to them.  Note to self:  get a better camera, or learn to take a better picture for crying out loud.  I stink at that.

This fabric was a little on the thinner side, so I used a napped sateen lining.  That sort of gives you the lining and interlining all in one.
