One picture ruined it all. I obtained fabric samples that I liked, added paint samples and only needed to throw them together in the perfect combination, when I saw a picture of the dead on balls acurate (my coisin vinny) colors that I wanted! And I had to start all over! Rats!
Of course I can only find these colors in satins and silky suit fabric, but even though the rest of the world and all its retailers use non-cotton thread for comforters these days, I think that I'll look like a fool with them on my bed. Rats again!
This is too hard I think, but even after I buy the silky fabric, I'm probably still saving half of what it would cost to get a comforter with the colors that I really only kinda want. If I could just find some trim or ribbons that go with what I want, I'd be set. The good news is that the fabric I'm looking at is 60 inches wide whic even though it costs more a yard, I get more fabric that with cotton because they only come in 45 inches wide. Now the question is . . . What pattern?

Good luck!
Better you than me. I tried to do this all one time too. I ran out of patience and ended up buying the comforter that I kinda liked, not loved.
Interesting to know.
