About this fabric

The blue-grey background reads cool and muted, while the small ivory beehive-like spots provide a gentle, chalky contrast rather than a high-impact graphic effect. Each motif has a slightly softened, uneven edge, giving the regular pattern a natural printed character. Fine vertical striations are visible through the ground, adding subtle surface depth to the cotton print. No performance features are noted for this fabric, so its fine appearance makes it particularly suited to light drapery.

How to use it

Use this soft blue-grey colourway for full-length curtains, relaxed blinds or a small-scale window treatment in a room built around cool whites, pale timber and muted grey accents. The ivory motifs can be echoed through trim or accessories without making the scheme feel busy.

Use this cool blue-grey colourway for airy curtains or relaxed blinds with gentle ivory contrast.

Pairs well with

A pattern needs somewhere for the eye to rest, so these are the plains and textures that sit beside Beehive Cloud Cotton Print Fabric without fighting it. Mixed across the houses we hold, which is the part a single supplier's book cannot do.

Paint that goes with it

Two ways to take the room. Both colours are from houses we hold, so a pot can come off the same order as the cloth. Screens shift colour, so treat these as a direction and bring the cloth to the shelf before you buy the paint.
