Road Trip - Haute Fabrics!


Last Saturday my husband, daughter and I went on a road trip to my favorite fabric place - Haute Fabrics in Marshall, VA.  Not sure how Julia and I convinced Dan to come w/us - I should have taken notes for next time.   So, what did we score?  Julia has a great eye and picked out the dusty pink Vervain chinoiserie silk above (in the middle) for drapes for her bedroom.  It's even more beautiful and sophisticated than this photo shows.

  Love this zig zag.

Beautiful blues.

Geometrics and florals.


 Walls and walls of trim.

In this room I found a super soft  Schumacher mohair in this gorgeous shade of green.  I'm planning to put that on a a bench in the library/dining room with the floral I bought for drapes.



Every time I head to Haute I always find something to be excited about.  Here's the info if you're up for a road trip yourself:

Haute Fabrics 8393 West Main Street - Marshall, VA 20115 - (540) 364-1221

  4. You are making it very difficult for this fabric addict to be comfortable with herself this morning. :)

    I will definitely have to plan a trip to Marshall to see this for myself.

  5. It looks MORE organized than it was when I visited about a year ago.

    I love that place...I called it a fabric hoard. :)

  6. We have nothing remotely like that here. If you want to buy any kind of a posh brand or fabric, you have to find it in a little tiny book of swatches and pay $120/yard or more. Looks like we need to go to VA again - haha.

    Shocked your husband came along. Whenever David comes on adventures like this, I end up rushing as he acts so bored.

  7. Haute is unbelievable, isn't it? Sometimes overwhelming unless you have a plan. Love your finds. Have fun creating with them!
    Have a great weekend.

  9. Michele - is Haute pretty reasonable outside of their massive sales? we went last summer thanks to your informtaion on it - and it was FANTASTIC. but i was wondering what the prices were like on the regular. hence, how much does the pricing help offset the cost to drive out there ;)
