FABRIC---Marimekko

A friend of mine recently found her perfect curtain fabric at Marimekko, a well-known Finnish textile company.  As I was only familiar with their most popular patterns, a.ka. the Unikko poppy print, I got curious and was surprised to find that some of their motifs are actually quite distinctive, yet subtle.  With more than a dozen designers and a series of continuing lines, Marimekko offers everything from kitchenware and bed linens to clothes and other accessories.
