Fabric of The Week: Nordic/Scandi Red Cotton

You may have seen this gorgeous fabric featured in the latest issue of Sew Magazine as part of the Home Trends Section. We love this fabric and think it would be perfect for Christmas craft projects or handmade gifts as well as fun textile prints or even homewares; being 100% Cotton, means this fabric really lends itself to a number of different options and creations.

We think this fabric looks great on its own or combined with other contrasting materials. We made a lovely 3D Christmas Tree hanging ornament using this print and our bottle green with red and gold starts material. We could also see this as a really festive stocking to be hung over the fireplace come Christmas Eve!
