Venetian Gothic Silk Wall Covering - Craft Fabric

The fifth design of the Venetian Gothic quilt fabric collection is old-fashioned elegant Venetian silk fabric for the walls of the main living room (soggiorno or portego) at the piano nobile level (one story above ground). This is the main room of the palazzo and would be the fanciest. It was used for dining and entertaining the guests.

I made three different versions of this before I settled on something that I like. The gold pattern is re-used and re-arranged wisteria blossoms. I wanted a pattern and colors that said “elegant” but not screaming at you. I also wanted some context of it being old, but not dirty or grungy.

Silk Wall Covering design with coordinating fabrics. The Venetian Gothic quilt fabric collections features designs inspired by 16th century Gothic architecture in Venice. Available at my Spoonflower shop on cotton quilting fabric with 18 inch repeat, and on wallpaper with 24 inch repeat. It is also available in small size with 6 inch repeat on both fabric and wallpaper - perfect for quilting or making dollhouses.
