I'm a fan of Rubie Green....

Michelle of Rubie Green has some of the prettiest & most refreshing fabrics out there. She lives in a tiny (but stylish) apartment in Harlem, New York & was featured in the most recent issue of Real Living Australia. I'm currently looking to reupholster the headboard in my main guest bedroom & I'd L-O-V-E three yds of the 'Marilyn' or 'Patsy' fabrics! Oh....should I spend the $ ?? They're so stunning!! Do any of you own Rubie Green Fabric??? If so, which??

    That headboard is amazing. I've just had a look at the two fabrics and they are both beautiful, but I have to say I prefer the Marilyn. If you have the money, I would deifinitely go for it. I'd love to see some pictures when you've finished as well.

    That black decanter is so pretty. I am so the person to build a beautiful stack of books only to realise I need the one at the bottom

    I love when there are many books and magazines lying around, I have a couple of piles on the floor, but it is harder to clean this way unfortunately :)

  21. You should absolutely go for it! I just swoon every time I see really lovely fabric. I have a whole collection of fabric that sits in a box (I can't really sew), but it was too lovely to pass up!

  30. I love Rubie Green! I had a lamp shade made up in the Tillinghast fabric for my daughters room but after receiving this issue of RL I moved it onto a different lamp base that is very similar to Michelle's, and I love it!

    I want to get some cushions made up in her fabrics, and I'd love her pink zig zag bedding.
