Welcome to my post for the Toile Party, you can find the party over on the The Pretty Organized Palace.
So... I NEED new drapes for our living room, I NEED toile!!! I need affordable toile in neutral colors... I need a lot of fabric.
I went "window" shopping online and found a few to share... I like them either for their color combo or for their design... or when I get lucky, both!
I also need new bedding and if I could get the hubby to agree, I would absolutely be getting toile bedding! I used to have a pink and green toile duvet but that was when I was single and living on my own. DH (dear husband) wanted nothing to do with that. *sigh*
I found this on the target website.
Oh... and let's not forget kitchen toile. I would love to get a little mistreatment up on my window made out of this:
For now I dream...............

The toile has just started appearing in our house. My husband's theory to decorating is this, He wants me to like since I spend most of my time here. He figures if I'm happy with a bed with pretty ruffled, sometimes pink, sheets then he's going to happy in that bed too. LOL One way to get hubby to see it your way.
Those are some lovely pieces of fabric! I used one of them on my Inspire Me Board.

Hi Katie,
I'm new to blogging too. I love your blog - you are very creative and have a real eye for decorating! I love toile too. Those fabrics you chose are to die for, or should I say, to "dye" for! LOL!! Please stop by and visit me sometime - I shall be following your lovely blog from now on! ~~Kim~~
The toiles that you show are so sophisticated...sigh. My hope is that some rich people will decide that they are so over the toile thing and leave theirs in a box out with their trash JUST as I drive by! :)
Ooo, that yellow rooster toile would look great in my kitchen too! Fun!
Your pillow is beautiful! No shame in having one fabulous piece of toile in the house. Thanks so much for joining the party!
pretty toiles!
Hello and Happy Toile Day!
Just following the link from the Toile Party over to your place...so glad that I did!
Well my friend, you have chosen some really beautiful toile patterns and colors...I especially like the tan/brown toiles with a hint of the pretty green and blue!!! Ooooh...so beautiful! I sure hope you are able to find some toile that you like for your home...wishing you the best and have fun decorating!
Warmest wishes,
Chari
Ooo yes, definitely more toile should be in your future. And I love that chicken toile :)
loved your post!
There is some beautiful toile fabric out there. I tend to be a little cheap when buying mine. Most of my toile fabric stash came from ebay or Walmart or on sale at Joann Fabric for 50% off.
So many little pretties! That rooster fabric is awesome, I would take that in a heartbeat! Ebay has toile drapes on the cheap, check it out.

Well now this is too weird! I just read your comment (thanks for visiting my blog by the way!) and my Mom is from Rockland County, NY and my Dad grew up in Bergen County! Isn't that a hoot! We were destined to meet up here in blogland Katie! LOL!!

Oh my I'm lovin the rooster toile. Never seen that before. I too have a love affair with toile but the hubby hates it. I snuck it into my woman room a.k.a. the laundry room.
Oh I LOVE that rooster toile. When i need toile, and my local WalMart can't provide the dollar a yard stuff it sometimes has, I check out fabricguru.com -- lots of toile, usually at good prices.
Keep hoping! Cass
I'm the same way...love toile but don't have any in my house...what's up with that!? Love that rooster toile fabric...so French Country, my favorite style! Thanks for sharing your fabric shopping with us!
