L&S Fabrics is giving away another $100 gift certificate! (Also – did you hear they are running a sale through the end of the month? 20% off with the coupon code LSFABRICS FIRST) They have some really awesome new fabric patterns, most ranging from $10-$35 per yard. It was easy to pull together fabrics for a whole imaginary house (I used my pattern-mixing formula).

I like more neutral fabrics for this imaginary living room. Maybe a colorful rug, or some fun accent pillows? With neutral base fabrics, anything goes. PS I will always love a buffalo check!

I thought these colors would be fun for a dining room. They seem so cheerful. And if you haven’t seen the full repeat of the coral floral in the upper right, check it out here. Gorgeous.

The family room in this house would also be pretty neutral. I love toile for curtains, because the pattern is less intense and obvious. I like the gray variations in this one – it looks like an expensive Schumacher pattern. And wouldn’t that faux bois pattern be great on a pair of arm chairs? It’s a like a modern take on the traditional lodge/man den look.

For a sweet, feminine nursery, I would mix some large and small-scale stylized florals with some fun check and dots patterns.

For a little boy’s room, how awesome are the anchors? The hits of dark charcoal keep things from going too sweet.

Oh man. I just ordered some of this abstract-like fabric for pillows, and I’m hoping it’s just as amazing in person. I love it.

All fabrics, and so, so many more, here on L&S.

For a chance to win $100 gift certificate (new drapes? pillows? an upholstery project!?), please leave a comment on this post and share what you would purchase with the $100. The contest closes this Friday at midnight and the winner will be chosen at random and emailed. Good luck!

And don’t forget the 20% off coupon code, good through the 30th! LSFABRICS FIRST

Contest is closed and the winner will be emailed (so check your inbox!) Thanks for playing!

  1. so glad you are back & on the mend! I missed my daily dose of LGN!! I am moving into a new place & would totally spend on fabric for curtains :-)

  2. I'd buy some of that stripe with the anchors for my little boys room for sure, it's perfect! Glad you are home and recovering!

  3. i have collected sooooooo feather pillows that now need new covers. it would be so fun to pick out some pretty fabric. love all your choices

  5. I have so many projects I could use this for! It would probably end up being used for curtains for the master bedroom. I love all of the fabrics you chose!

  6. I've had my eye on that Robert Allen for Dwell Studio yellow/gray print for a while. I think I'd get enough to recover a chair for my bedroom! Great giveaway!

  7. I'm so glad you are feeling better! The L&S site is amazing. I need some pillows for the family room and the Lily fabric in Robins Egg looks great. I also love the Riley–fun geometric–and would work in the guest room.

  8. I would buy some fabric to reupholster the great chair I am going to find for my family room. Thanks for the giveaway!

  9. I'd like to add trim onto our boring linen drapes. I was thinking of the leading side. I've a a whole bunch of windows and doors with this same drape (for continuity). :)
    Glad you're better. We missed you!

  10. You're right- portabello vase in ladybug is pretty awesome. I'd never seen that floral before, but it might be just the thing to go with my neutral ticking stripe chairs. I still need to make some pillows for them.

  11. I would get the Casablanca Geo in Toffee. I'd make curtains for our sunroom and pelmet boxes for the living room… the rooms are open to one another :)

    Thanks for the chance! Glad you're all better!

  12. So many fabrics, so little time! I would select fabric for my dining room – recover the chairs and make drapes. The living room is completed now so the dining room is screaming for some attention.

  13. ohhh this is my favorite giveaway! Hoping for a win this time. I really would love to add a ton of pretty pillows all over my house :) And I could def go for some buffalo check too.

  14. I am glad you are better! I would make some bright pillow to brighten up my living room, it's looking a bit dull.

  15. Loving that grey ikat in the first group of fabrics! I have three Craigslist/Habitat Restore chairs in dire need of reupholstering.

    One of them is a Henredon I found for $35 at the Restore — no joke — and it seriously deserves better than the water-stained puppy-chewed linen it's wearing now!

  16. I would love to recover our ottoman. One of the buttons is missing the leather now and the piping is tearing off. It would be so fun to spruce it up with a fun print and this would be such a blessing!

  17. Amazing!1 I would make my fabric and money stretch by using the pretty fabric on one side of my throw pillows and the other side can just be white linen.

  19. I read your guide about pattern mixing and am ready to try to get my living room in my new apartment in shape. Thank you for all of your ideas and inspiration!

  20. I would get some lovely ikat for new livingroom curtains. I sure do wish you a speedy and pain free recovery, Jenny!
