**EDIT: Good question Ang! I went to Hancock's because their home decor fabs were 50% through yesterday, PLUS, I had a 10% off entire purchase coupon! I was hoping to get it yesterday, but I just couldn't commit! I've already received my mailer for next month and there is a small window where I'll be able to use the coupons for some super savings. It will be roughly $9/yd after the discounts...so I want to make the right decision!**

I made a trip to Hancock's last night with B and the little king in tow. My mission was to purchase 22 yards of fabric for my dining and living room windows. When I got there, I was overwhelmed and couldn't decide which fabric I liked best. I need your help!
The basics: carpet and tile are both neutral, walls are neutral (soon to be repainted!), furniture is neutral....you can tell I don't branch out much.
Here's what I did like...tell me what you think...
Option #1
Option #3
Option #5
I plan on making these 90in long....nearly floor to ceiling. With some of the coordinating fabrics I may put a border at the top or bottom. Also, I will be using drapery grommets.
Opinions please!

Well, since you asked so nicely! :~) They are all pretty, but I am partial to blue and vertical stripes, so I pick Option #1 or runner up would be #3.
How exciting! Can't wait to see pictures of the process and completed work!
I say number one or two. The are nice subtle patterns, two is my fave. I am not a big fan of the stand out patterns, some of the patterns and colors were a sort of knock you in the face type, they are all really nice, it depends on if you want to make a bold statement or not, but as you said, you don't branch out much.I also can't help but wonder if cost is factored, are they all about the same, because I know that 20 yards of fabric can be pretty pricy, although curtains are expensive too. I am so excited to help in solving this dilemma. You'll have to announce the winner before you start.
My vote is for 7. But a close second would be #3. But, I say go for 7!!!!
I always like to get the biggest bang for my buck, and wanted to know wich would be the best buy for you. $9/yard is not a bad price, of course when your buying a ton of it, it can seem like a lot. I still like number two the best, then one.
I like option # 2! But they're all very pretty :-)
I'm likin' the "Bolds"....5 thru 7. I'm thinking if everything else is neutral, you need something to stand out! Can't wait to hear what you decide!!
One more tally mark for Option #1...per my sister's request. :)
