While the division lines are clearly drawn between dog lovers and cat enthusiasts there can be no doubt that Britain is an island of pet lovers. Our homes just wouldn’t be the same without our furry friends- rabbits, rodents, guinea pigs, even squirrel monkeys are getting a look in these days! And while they are [...]
Bellissimo!
August 22, 2009 by james.brennan · View Comments
The beautiful Bellissimo fabric collection one of the most popular of Terry’s whole range. The collection is split into two groups – stripes and flora. While increased choice in a range will always make it much easier to include in any scheme, it is the fact that stripes and flora are probably the most common [...]
Its all about Balance- Decorating with Vertigo
August 21, 2009 by james.brennan · View Comments
Reminiscent of the sharp geometric wallpaper designs of the 1940s and 50s, the Vertigo range is a perfect fabric choice for the increasingly popular eclectic design style which tastefully and skilfully incorporates a broad mix of nostalgia, contemporary design and design classics. The colour range perfectly complements the retro angular style, including lots of daring [...]
Notting Hill Carnival
August 20, 2009 by james.brennan · View Comments
Those tasteful souls at Terry’s really missed a trick when they neglected to include the word carnival when naming their Notting Hill collection as it really does contain all the colour, spice and excitement of the London borough’s famous multicultural celebration. The floral pattern is delicate and richly detailed yet dynamic and daring in its [...]

The Rendezvous collection is full of easy charm and is characterised by laid back shades and muted, warm tones with each pattern given direction by floral motifs similar to those seen in Mediterranean pottery.

The aptly named Summer Garden fabric range at Terry’s is simply bursting with colour. Eye catching sky blues and vivid oranges are mixed with ice whites and lush lavenders for a really eye catching effect that is as uplifting as it is beautiful.

The aptly named Orchestra collection is a symphony of stunning styles. With patterns ranging from winter flower motifs to crests to ornate honeycomb-like repeats and each pattern coming in an extensive list of colour combinations you really are spoiled for choice. Though certainly a broad ranging collection, it doesn’t lack cohesion, colours are generally more [...]
Do You Know the Way to Santa Fe?

Browns, beiges, creams and butterscotch are the order of the day for the Clarissa fabric collection. These rich, earthy tones coupled with the honest simplicity of the range make it a perfect choice for anyone wanting to recreate the famous American southwest style known as Santa Fe. Santa Fe style is fairly unusual in that [...]
A Roma Round the Countryside
August 15, 2009 by james.brennan · View Comments
The Roma fabric collection is a heady mix of natural charm and warm yet soothing shades. Cyan blue, cool mustard, burnt red and every shade of cream all feature in this beautiful floral collection. Despite being named after the Italian capital, the English countryside is where I’m placing it today. It is my feeling that this classic, [...]
Modern Style with the Botanical Range

The Botanical fabric collection has added a whole new twist to the floral motif. Its sharp, angular qualities provide a welcome change to the soft foliage normally found. The colours too, are well picked and refreshing. Black is bravely chosen as a background to mushroom and crimson. Teal is finely balanced against cool putty. But [...]
