About this fabric
This woven check combines broad translucent cream bands with dusty mauve blocks and narrow deep plum lines, giving the colourway a cool, softened depth rather than a bright contrast. The 10cm vertical and 9.5cm horizontal repeats keep the plaid clearly defined while maintaining a balanced scale across the 138cm usable width. At 270gsm, it is a versatile mid-weight suitable for both upholstery and drapery. The standard length is 40m, making it practical for coordinated furnishing projects requiring pattern continuity.
How to use it
Use Bowland Heather where its cool mauve ground can soften darker wood or painted furniture, while the cream and plum lines add definition to curtains, occasional chairs and cushions.
Use the cool mauve, cream and plum check to bring tailored country character to upholstery, cushions or full-length curtains.

Pairs well with
Bowland Heather is a quiet cloth, so it carries a pattern beside it: one of these on the curtains and this on the chair. 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.
