Maritime Blue

Name: Maritime Blue
Brand: Fryett's Fabrics

Maritime Blue brings a crisp coastal feel to the Novelty Time collection, with little boats, bunting and lighthouses scattered across an ivory ground. The blue notes read fresh and slightly cool, lifted by touches of red for a playful seaside look.

About this fabric

This 100% cotton fabric has a 140cm width and a 32cm pattern repeat, making it a practical printed textile for smaller-scale furnishing projects. In this colourway, the maritime blue sits against a soft off-white background, so the sailboats, striped lighthouses and bunting stand out clearly without feeling overly bright. The print has a neat, storybook quality, with the blue tones ranging from pale sky shades to deeper navy accents across the motifs. Its cotton handle and decorative repeat make it especially suited to characterful upholstery pieces that need a light, cheerful finish.

How to use it

Use Maritime Blue on a bench cushion, kitchen chair or window seat where the clean blue-and-red palette can bring a fresh coastal note. It also works well in a cottage or seaside scheme alongside white paint, pale oak and navy stripes.

A cheerful coastal print that works best on relaxed, practical pieces.

Pairs well with

Maritime Blue 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.
