Marimekko is an awesome textile line that has been around since the 50s. They have very cool textiles: colorful, modern, floral, striped, geometric, etc. that are used in interiors and in fashion. They are wonderful for drapery, accent pillows, bedding, etc., but are quite expensive. Recently, Ikea has started selling textiles with a Marimekko flair. They are around $7/yd, and can be used for these applications. They can also be used as art: wrap around a wooden frame and hang on the wall. Here are a few I like.
