We know that trying to match colours on fabrics or wallpapers from a website can be difficult. Thats why we've launched the Colour-Match Service.

You can send us fabric or wallpaper cuttings, magazine cuttings... infact anything and we'll try to match it to a colourway of your chosen fabric or wallpaper.

So if you've a Sofa you want to make cushions for or you're looking to make curtains to match your carpet, simply send us a cutting and we'll do our best to match it!

Oh and it's absolutely free. We'll match it, send you samples absolutely free!

I have just seen the Clarke and Clarke rep who showed me the new Modern Classics book - and what a great replacment for the Cath Kidston range!  Much better value at only £14.99 per metre it has all the design and style Cath kidston followers love on a high quality background fabric. What a find!

I have just finished fitting the most amazing Andrew Martin window dressings. We used Andrew Martin Pushkin velvet in the Amethyst colour as a top curtain with a dark amethyst silk curtain underneath. With a little help from some massive crystal tie backs, we pulled the top curtain up into big voluminous balloon, leaving the working silk curtain underneath just peeping through,  and the hem puddling down on the floor. They just look amazing and we are going to be able to photograph them next month so watch this space for some great images!

What an exciting week ahead! Willa is in with the new Autumn launch from Barbara Barry and Kravett Design. I cant wait as this is a personal favourite of mine!  Im looking forward to seeing lots of cut velvets and beautiful trimmings so we will update the site with the best of whats new later this week.

The contact sheets have arrived for a cinema room we photographed in London. We completed this project with our friends at Bang & Olufsen. I do love looking back over what we have completed - its like Grand Designs revisited! It was a real challenge with a star lit ceiling, a long base storage unit hung from the wall and underlit so it appeared to float off the floor, a bar, skirting lit floors and the biggest flat screen TV I have ever seen!  The accent colour was a deep Teal and looked amazing against the chocolate brown of the furniture. This was an interior you could just curl up in and loose yourself for days! As ever the guys at Bang & Olufsen did an amzing job of the AV installation and I think the clients children took over the room shortly after we left!

Finally on my things to do this week - I am trying to get ready for more curtain making courses here at Chiddingfold.  After the feedback from the radio show on Saturday, it looks like it could be busy this month!

Anyway - must run now but more updates later.....
