It's Waverly General Store Crimson, shown in the photo. It matches the slipcover fabric and my couch fabric. And I think the stripes will add interest to the checks and English floral fabrics.
Jo-Ann's would have ordered the fabric for me, but could promise no better than four to six weeks for delivery. I didn't like that. So I came home and went online and found it at onlinefabricstore.net. I have to pay shipping, but the price per yard is cheaper than Jo-Ann's was at 50% off. So I feel good about it. And it should be here by the middle of next week, if not before.
So one more thing marked off my to-do list.

Lovely fabric Susan, worth tripping to all those stores. Hope you had a break and a pick-me up when you got home.

Glad to hear that you managed to get the fabric Susan. It often happens to me that I choose a fabric only to find it is just a metre short.

How did we ever live without the internet? :o) Great fabric. I too am a fan of the English Country look, I love everything you've shown us so far.

Lovely fabric, I'm sure that the valance will look wonderful - at 10 yards there will probably be some left over for a cushion or two. Enjoy your weekend.

I have that fabric, Susan! It's in my bedroom, on a neckroll pillow. I've had it for 9 years and I still love it. It has flower fabric coordinates too. If you like Yankee Candles, the pillow is on the "Home Sweet Home" Label. Nice taste! ;-) Jen

That stripe is beautiful and classic. I'm sure you will really enjoy the valances made out of that!
