I don't know if you are familiar with the Ralph Lauren fabric pattern named "Kathleen" -- but when I saw it some months ago, somewhere in a magazine, or on the internet or somewhere, I fell in love with it. I only wanted a yard or so to cover two chair seats, and have a little left over for a small table topper. So I looked online and found out it was discontinued! I searched all different online fabric stores. And for me to try to purchase a sheet or something, just to cover a couple of small chair seats, just seemed too expensive. (Plus, since it was discontinued, there's not much to be found in this pattern anyway.) Then I had an idea to try to find something in similar colors AND cheaper...So I looked around and I found it! I got it at Hobby Lobby. Yes, I DO see a difference, and I DO like the Ralph Lauren colors better, but I don't think I did too badly! Here's the difference below. When I recover the chairs in a few weeks, in preparation for the Summer, I will do a post on it! Until then, the two fabrics for your perusal...
THIS is the Hobby Lobby fabric that I purchased:
This is Ralph Lauren's "Kathleen" -- isn't it so deep and beautiful? Ahhhhhh...
But I think I did a pretty good matching job, if I say so myself. ;)
I'm pretty satisfied with it.
Hope everyone has a wonderful weekend -- Happy Easter and Happy Passover!
Best,
Gloria
