Fabrics & Linens: Ticking Stripes

March 4th, 2008

From Julie and Sarah:

We share a genetic predisposition to ticking stripes, which are reassuring in their familiarity and somehow work beautifully almost anywhere in the house.

Below: Pottery Barn is currently offering a good selection of ticking stripe bedding, ranging from $25 for a pillow sham to $129 for a duvet cover; go to potterybarn.com:
