Avila Soft Blue

Avila Soft Blue pairs a softly aged blue floral sprig with a warm cream ground. The closely spaced motif gives the surface a delicate, ordered rhythm while retaining an easy country-house feel.

About this fabric

This 100% cotton fabric has a fine, even-looking surface covered with small blue-grey botanical sprigs, each arranged in a 14 cm vertical by 17 cm horizontal repeat. The cool, muted blue sits gently against the cream background rather than reading as a strong or saturated accent. At 136 cm (53.43") wide, it is specified for curtains, loose upholstery, fixed upholstery and bedspreads. Professional dry cleaning is required; it must not be washed, bleached or ironed.

How to use it

Use the soft blue and cream combination on a window seat, occasional chair or relaxed curtain, then repeat the same cool botanical note across a bedspread. Its small-scale pattern is particularly suited to rooms needing detail without visual heaviness.

A cool, gently patterned cotton for relaxed upholstery, curtains and coordinated bedspreads.

Pairs well with

A pattern needs somewhere for the eye to rest, so these are the plains and textures that sit beside Avila Soft Blue 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.
