Topsy Turvy Red

Topsy Turvy Red belongs to Pie in the Sky, the collection Tone Finnanger dedicated to daydreaming children and the colourful worlds they invent. The print is dense and small in scale: little blue flowers with pink and green leaves tumbling over a warm red ground, with no set direction, so the fabric can be cut any way round without worrying about the motif.

Small prints like this one are handy for quilt blocks, narrow borders, linings and drawstring bags, and they sit well on the curved pieces of Tilda dolls. It pairs happily with the other prints in the collection and with green or pink solids. Pre-wash the fabric before cutting, so the slight shrinkage happens before you sew.
