Adina Ochre

Adina Ochre belongs to Sanctuary, the muted, cosy autumn/winter collection from Tilda. The print is a close-set medallion design with small stylised posies repeating in neat rows: a medium-scale pattern that still reads well once it is cut into squares or strips, which makes it handy for quilt blocks, borders and cushion backs.

The ochre ground sits easily next to the soft greens and dusty pinks of the same collection, or with warm solids if you want a quieter contrast. It also works for bags, pouches, pot holders and Tilda dolls. Pre-wash the fabric before cutting, so that the slight shrinkage happens before you sew.
