I OWN A DRAPERY WORKROOM AND USED THE "JOONAS" FABRIC TO SLIPCOVER AN OLD WING CHAIR WHICH WAS ON DISPLAY IN A SHOWROOM IN NEWBURYPORT.
NOT A DAY WENT BY THAT SOMEONE DID NOT COME IN TO TAKE A CLOSER LOOK. I ALSO USED THE SELVEDGE FOR THE BOXING AND ON THE ARMS TO DISPLAY THE FABRIC INFO. I THINK IT RELATED BACK TO THE GRAFFITI OF THE DAY. I HAVE SINCE ORDERED THIS FABRIC FOR MY OWN PERSONAL WINDOW TREATMENTS.

I ordered this fabric to cover an antique chaise lounge and I am thrilled with the result. Fabric quality is excellent and the design is stunning. Everyone who has seen the recovered item has commented positively on the fabric.
Pros
Stunning design and exceptional quality.
Cons
Possibly the price. NZ dollar exchange and duty payable made it very expensive but a unique piece of furniture now.

Quick and efficient service. This fabrick is EVERYthing I had hoped it would be. This designer speaks to the modern heart. Please keep it coming.
Merchant Response:Marimekko upholstery fabrics are machine washable in hot water. (60 degrees C). They can also be spot cleaned or professionally cleaned once on your furniture piece.
Pros
It's versatility. This fabric, because of the unique and innovative design, looks completely different when placed on different pieces. I appreciate the care instructions that came along with the fabric. Invaluable
Cons
The fabric is not washable. As I'm using it for furnigure upholstery, I'm concerned it will become soiled way before I will be ready to re-upholster.
Any chance that this fabric could be used for drapes?

We recommend consulting with a seamstress/upholsterer for their recommendations on fabric for drapes. Some people have used upholstery fabric for their drapes, however you should consult with a professional.

by yard do you mean a square cut of 36" by 36"?
1 Answer
Hello, each fabric comes with its own width provided in the description section below the price. In this case:
Measurements: 61" (155 cm) wide
And it is then measured by the yard length wise from there. So one yard is - 61" X 36"
