About this fabric

Made from 100% linen, this 133 cm-wide fabric carries a 20 cm vertical repeat and a 19 cm horizontal repeat, creating a neat, almost tiled rhythm. The dusty coral-red motifs bring warmth, while the muted blue detailing gives the colourway a cooler, slightly faded depth against the light ground. It is specified for curtains, loose upholstery, fixed upholstery and bedspreads. Care is dry clean only: do not wash, bleach or iron.

How to use it

Use Cecily Red/Blue to bring gentle colour and fine pattern to a relaxed traditional sitting room, either on upholstered pieces or full curtains. Its pale ground and softened red-blue palette also suit a layered bedroom scheme with linen bedding and painted furniture.

A softly traditional red-and-blue linen repeat for curtains, upholstery and bedspreads.

Pairs well with

A pattern needs somewhere for the eye to rest, so these are the plains and textures that sit beside Cecily Red/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.
