Why We’re Sew Into 'Mathilde': Its labyrinthine line print maze that packs detail into every inch without overpowering the design Its timeless color combination of black and white in high contrast drama Its plush velvet pile where lustre catches light and textural depth invites touch HomeSewn Wisdom: Keep pattern play modern and sleek: Introduce Mathilde roman shades to contemporary, streamlined interiors dominated by a neutral palette and modern motifs. Their minuscule horse print adds interest, depth, and movement while the crisp black and white contrast keeps the palette modern and sophisticated. Select the back-slatted fold style: Showcase the unique pattern of this roman shade in the best light by opting for the back-slatted fold style. Its slatless frontage offers a clean surface for the pattern to flow freely, while its boxy profile keeps the look modern and chic. Opt for curtains: If you’re dressing windows wider than 96 inches, try Mathilde curtains as a stylish alternative to roman shades. Drapery’s generous dimensions and flowy trails are particularly well suited to wider spans, creating a balanced and refined look. Start with a sample: Screens may lie; swatches don’t. Since colors in images can vary on different screens, ordering a sample of Mathilde is highly advisable. This will allow you to see the colors upclose, and check how the fabric feels to the touch. Complement with matching accessories: For a custom designer look, coordinate your roman shades with other textile accessories in the room. Order matching runners, table covers or cushion covers from us, or buy Mathilde fabric by the yard to create any matching fabric accessory of your choice. The Nitty-Gritty (Made Pretty): Our roman shades arrive with all necessary hardware, so you can skip that last-minute store dash. We include cord lock anchors for child and pet safety, because style should never come at the cost of safety. Each roman shade at Sewn is handcrafted by skilled artisans from India who pour care, precision and decades of experience into every stitch.
