Fabric from France…


I’m in favor of starting June with some eye candy.
Les Toiles du Soleil, a company founded 150 years ago in the village of Saint Laurent de Cerdans opened a store this winter in New York, and it looks like a breath of lavender and sunshine. Their cotton fabrics come in an array of sun-drenched color combinations (also used on their espadrilles), and they have Sunbrella fabric more than ready for your porch furniture. Just looking at these makes me happy.














Ashley: Les Toiles du Soleil is amazing!
love that you’re giving it a little shout-out on the blog

Ashley, I just think their fabrics are so, so pretty. I don’t have a project in mind for them (other than recovering my imaginary porch furniture), but the patterns make me smile.1 year ago

Suzanne F.: Love the fabrics…I can never have enough. Sometimes I buy some just to keep (for when I need it!) But I have to tell you about my bee gees’ moment today…refinishing the teak floor of our boat & ‘Staying Alive’ came on the radio. Thank goodness the marina is quiet on Mondays because I just had to boogie.1 year ago
