Woodland Chorus Sky Blue/Multi

Arboretum Fabrics FabricSAF0153-01

Woodland Chorus Sky Blue/Multi sets the Arboretum design against a pale, airy blue ground that makes the birds, nests and leafy branches feel light and open. The soft background gives the illustrated details room to breathe, so the pattern reads clearly without feeling crowded.

About this fabric

This Sanderson fabric has a usable width of 139 cm, a standard length of 50 m, and a substantial 300 gsm weight, making it a practical mid-weight textile for schemes that need both presence and versatility. The 49 threads per cm give the cloth a finely woven finish that supports the intricate printed detail of the design. In this colourway, the sky-blue ground is cool and muted rather than vivid, with just enough warmth to soften the overall look. The multi-coloured birds, foliage and twiggy branches stand out crisply against the pale blue, while the repeat of 63 cm vertical and 91 cm horizontal creates a broad, scenic rhythm across the cloth.

How to use it

Use this sky-blue version where you want a calm backdrop with movement, such as relaxed seating, roman blinds or a statement occasional chair. It pairs especially well with pale woods, chalky whites and garden-greens that echo the foliage in the print.

A gentle sky-blue ground keeps the lively bird-and-branch motif fresh and airy.

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.
