Motorized Ripplefold Drapery

My family room draperies are completed and I think it was worth the wait. Take a look……

Motorized Drapery

This is the track that I won from Somfy when I went to Inspire. The track can be ordered for pinch pleat or ripplefold draperies.

Here is a close up of the ripplefold heading. It’s a great look for more modern settings and the stack back is less. The track is attached to a wood fascia that I painted gold.

The fabric came from Spoonflower, they are a company in NC that prints custom fabric. The designer was so great to work with; she was able to adjust the color and pattern repeat to exactly what I wanted.

I think Zoe likes the new look. What about you ?

That was my first YouTube video…. Could I sound any more Southern ?

Caitlin Wilson Textiles

Last weekend Mr. Stitches, Zoe and I went to Asheville to visit the Biltmore House. Wow, amazing window treatments ! I wish I could have taken pictures in the house. Here we are up on the hill facing the house. We got to take Zoe on the grounds and through the gardens. There wasn’t much blooming but the weather was so nice !

Mr. Stitches bought me a House Beautiful magazine for the ride. There was an interview with Caitlin Wilson and a beautiful picture of her and her kids. They are sitting on her bed which is upholstered in one of CWD fabrics, Berry Fleur Chinoise.

She is an interior designer that likes bold patterns and has a gorgeous fabric line with some really fun prints.

I recently ok maybe it was last year, made a roman shade for a client with the Mustard Fleur Chinoise fabric for her kitchen.

I think I need something in the Pink City Maze, perhaps a pillow or two……

Be sure to check out her website and let me know which pattern is calling your name.

Special Spaces Makeover for Addie

Special Spaces of the Triangle strikes again with a room makeover for a sweet little girl named Addie. She is 3 1/2 years old and battling acute lymphoblastic leukemia. Many volunteers got busy transforming her bedroom and playroom so she could have a beautiful sanctuary to rest and play. We were blessed to be involved again and to create window treatments for her new room.

Janet made gorgeous tiebacks for the draperies. Here we are placing the choux roses on them.

Ronnie built the stage and about 100 other things, he is superman with a hammer !

There were so many people doing so many jobs. Just when you think that there’s no way it’s going to get finished in time, it does ! Ta-Da….





We were able to redo her playroom too and added this stage; what little girl wouldn’t love this ! They had so many generous donations and were able to buy her lots of educational and fun toys.

Yes, that’s all Ikea furniture. You know what that means…. lots of assembling to do.

My WCAA friends jumped in and helped this time. Janet made the valance for playroom and the coordinating cushion for the bench.

Ronica made the shower curtain with fabric so generously donated by Greenhouse Fabrics. Thank you GH, you rock !

Addie loves horses. I can see her riding on that little pony under the new tree mural.

It’s late and time for the family to come home for the big reveal !

Addie and her daddy seeing her room………..

I think she likes it !

Katie and Brenda, the co-directors of Special Spaces of the Triangle worked so hard on this makeover and it was all worth it. I told Mr. Stitches that I wish we could do this every weekend. If you would like to be involved in the next one, just contact and Special Spaces chapter near you. Just look at those beautiful girls; I am blessed to know them all.

There are many more photos on their Facebook page. Go and like them to keep up with all the awesome things they are doing.
