J&O Fabric Award of the Week: Celestial Tapestry!-J&O Fabrics Store Newsletter

Wednesday, November 19, 2008

Timeless elegance and effortless class are the qualities most evident in our large selection of designer tapestry fabrics. Tapestry will not only draw out the innate beauty of your home, your own personal selection of tapestry fabric will make a beautiful and decorative art heirloom for your family and serve as a wonderful feature for years to come.

Dating back to the Age of Antiquity, tapestry has always been considered a luxurious fabric woven and crafted by artisans from different cultures and backgrounds. With each technique carrying its own distinctive style, pattern, or symbolic meaning, tapestries became a valuable source of information and expression to be handed down generation to generation. As this woven art form spread over land and sea, ancient tradition became infused with modern ideas, and tapestry became a reflection of our vast imaginings. Today you can find just about any image on tapestry fabric, for it is truly a decorators blessing.

At J&O, we carry an extensive selection of tapestry fabrics in an assortment of categories ranging from landscape to seascape, from Route 66 to the San Francisco Bridge. But for our fabric pick of the week, the award goes to Celestial Tapestry. With its three dimensional-like appeal, Celestial Tapestry is a mystical and heavenly decorative print with alluring qualities that draw you in for a closer look and feel. Printed on a 54” wide cotton-poly blend, Celestial Tapestry carries an array of sun, moon, star and planetary images that nearly pop off the midnight black canvas. If your universal spirit connects you to the world of astrology, maybe the printed sun chart can direct you to your perfect soul mate too.

A great material for upholstering seat cushions, slipcovers, table covers, wall hangings or other decorative items; at only $19.98 per yard, Celestial Tapestry gets 4 stars and this week’s Fabric Award!
