New York — Pajama maven Karen Neuburger is preparing to extend her home textiles franchise into a line of towels, floor coverings, shower curtains and soft tabletop items.

Neuburger, whose line of bedding is manufactured and marketed by Guilford Home Fashions, made the announcement today during an informal session at Guilford's new showroom here at 261 Fifth Ave., and also displayed design boards for new introductions to be unveiled at April market.

According to Steve Castella, vp of design for Guilford, the new beds will feature more of a master bedroom look but will still convey Neuburger's easy, comfortable styling and casual looks.

Neuburger has not yet announced which suppliers she will partner with on additional home textiles lines.
