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!

  2. Wow! I have an old ("antique", but not too valuable) chair that I've been itching to reupholster using your tutorial. This would be a perfect start.

  3. Love, love, love L&S!! I could use some fabric for making pillows and for trying out the wonderful pelmet box tutorial on your site for my daughter's new big girl room!

  4. Welcome back, Jenny! So glad you're feeling better! :)

    I love L&S, though I have a terrible habit of falling in love with out of stock fabric, lol.

    I'd put that $100 toward some fabric for new living room curtains. I was so sick of our winter ones after last year, that when spring finally came, I threw them out! Chicago's starting to get chilly already, so I'd better get to work! :)

    Thanks for offering such a great giveaway!

  5. This is great! I would get fabric for curtains in front of my daughter's new bedroom closet…in her brand new apartment. She needs so much that it would be nice to do this for her.

  6. Glad you're feeling better! I love those yellow and gray fabrics – I would use them to upholster an ottoman in my living room.

  7. Curtains and or pillows for my bare living room! I have been waiting to find the perfect rug to start the living room off (after moving in 3 moths ago) but it has been tough to find. I have decided that if I find an inspirational fabric, pillow or curtain for the room i will go with that and then the rug will fall in place eventually.

    Welcome back!

  8. I'm actually just about to try the fabric headboard you made for Joanna. I would love to have a little extra for curtains!

    So glad you're feeling better Jenny!

  9. There are several things I could spend this $100 on! Recovering my dining room chairs, new pillows for the sofa, etc….

  10. I am currently on the hunt for a good black and white fabric to re-cover my dining room chairs. Thanks for the opportunity!

  11. I have so many projects that the possibilities of what I could use this for are endless. But I think I would use it for a slip cover for this older upholstered rocking chair I recently scored at my local thrift store for only $18! : )

  12. Glad you are feeling better! I'm working on recovering some chairs and still on the hunt for some fabric. I could for sure make good use of this give away! Take care.

  13. I have so many projects that it could be used for – headboard, pillows or window treatments are all options. Thanks for the chance to win. Glad you're feeling better!

  14. We recently moved to a new apartment and have too many sad rooms without drapes. I would do beautiful drapes and throw pillows!

  15. We just moved & have sad rooms without drapes. I would do window treatments & throw pillows! Or maybe tackle my upholstery project I've been dreaming of

  16. We recently moved to a new apartment and have too many sad rooms without drapes. I would do beautiful drapes and throw pillows!

  17. I'm going to reupholster a pair of antique sewing benches. I can't decide between the Amagamsette, Summer Breeze, and Kashmir Cotton. So many great options!

  18. I would love to win this giveaway. We have an entire (new) house of curtain-less windows and I finally figured out how to sew curtains and roman shades. I have been eyeing this amazing linen silly dilly fabric for awhile. Oh, but I could also find something yellow and pretty for the nursery. Hmm…

  19. Great giveaway! I love L&S. I'm really into their Kennebunk print right now, although I have no idea what I'd use it for. I also would love to use either the Meneferie or Oslo print to make some envelope throw pillows for my best friend.

  20. What a great site – thanks for sharing! Your picks are great and I'm ready to spend some $$ on fabric to spruce up my house!

  21. ohh so many to choose from but loving the blue leopard and abstract! great idea! thanks!
