ruffles on the brain

My friend Mara knows I am working on my shower curtain, and showed me this gorgeous duvet.  It went right onto my wishlist.  At the rate that the ruffles on this curtain are taking me, I might need a little break from sewing them.  That would make this duvet worth every penny.  

Of course I want it in ivory or gray.... but the plum color is breathtaking too!

  1. Love that duvet! I am starting the Waterfall curtains this week that go with it. The only thing I am looking forward to is the finished product!

  2. I agree, they are GORGEOUS. I bought the matching shower curtain from U.O. in turquoise blue a few months ago, and was really unhappy when it came! The fabric was ultra-cheap and the curtain hung crooked. So...I tried again. And the replacement curtain that came still hung crooked. I couldn't get over the cheap fabric either.

    I really don't mean to dash your hopes! Just trying to be helpful and wanted to let you know. :) But hey, you may love it!

  3. OH I LOVE LOVE LOVE it! For the sake of my husband and saving him from things that are a bit too girly I could never get it for the Master bedroom but a guest room maybe :) or my own room :D

  7. You should all know that I was in TJ Maxx in Brickyard aka Sugarhouse the other day and they had ruffled KING quilts, that looked just like this in white only for $49. FYI case you want a cheaper version.

    I'm wondering what the ruffle foot does that I can't do with just tightening up the tension and lengthening the stitch?
