Tipsy Sour Yellow

Tipsy Sour Yellow belongs to Sunday Brunch, the Tilda collection of soft vintage colours made for spring and summer sewing. It is one of the blenders of the range: tiny grey sprigs and pale blue flowers packed over a warm mustard yellow, so that from a distance the fabric reads almost as a solid and gives the larger prints room to breathe.

It works well in the small pieces of a quilt, in sashing and borders, and just as nicely for bag linings, pouches, cushions and Tilda makes, where a busy little print still shows in small cuts. Pre-wash the fabric before cutting, so the slight shrinkage happens before you sew. For long strips or a quilt backing, choose one of the larger cuts.
