curtians/curtain fabric for ds

I'm starting to sort and redecorate ds' room as he wants it a 'bit older'. I'm at a loss for curtains though and remember from the way, way past , someone posting a link on here for a fantastic curtain/fabric site. Really unusual prints...tyre treads, zinc flooringy type pattern..really strong and quirky designs but can I hell find it!

Anyone seen anything along these lines please?

I'm afraid I can't help you finding the particular website. But, if you don't find the fabric/curtains you like, you can always get well-matched plain ones and put emphasis on other things - from extravagant tie-back to wallpaper and other decor.
Personally, I find it much easier (and cheaper) to change the wall decor in the room than the window dressings. Just a thought though....

I have just redecorated my 11 yr old DS bedroom. We have done it red, white and blue. Three red walls, one white with a big blue union flag sticker. Royal blue carpet and union flag curtains. I got the sticker and curtain fabric from good old eBay! Just need a new lampshade now, it looks very modern and should last him into his teenage years.

thanks all; I'm still looking for that website but for the moment have dyed his old curtains bright red (turned out really nice) and painted an old cupboard his fav shade of blue so that has perked it up no end. Also found a fantastic mirror in a charity shop for £1.50. It's a BMX tyre framing a circular mirror and I can't believe how good it looks !
