Why We’re Sew Into 'Matte Skies': Its navy blue-grey palette that offers a contemporary twist to a classical pattern The pared-back version of damask that gives it a modernised appeal Its silken lustre that is fitting for a formal space If you want something exclusive and elegant for dressing up your room, do take a second look at this lovely embossed and self patterned jacquard pattern. Its navy backdrop is self patterned with soft gray with a vintage foliage motif that's further highlighted with a raised edge embossed effect. To bring out the true beauty of this fabric, get it made in pinched pleat type curtains. HomeSewn Wisdom: Choose a befitting fold style: For full-fledged formal dressiness, go for the European relaxed fold style that adds depth, embellishment and drama with its scalloped bottom edge. It bestows your roman blinds with sumptuous appeal that brings out the best of the shades besides relaying unique bespoke charm. Use trims as a finishing touch: Carry forward the elaborate adornment of the damask pattern by making the decorative addition of a sumptuous tassel trim or fringe trim to the bottom hem of your roman shade. Opt for curtains: If you’re dressing windows wider than 96 inches, try Matte Skies 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 Matte Skies 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 Matte Skies 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.
