About this fabric

This Sanderson fabric from the Indoor Outdoor Prints collection is specified as an Outdoor textile, with a usable width of 138.5 cm and a substantial 220 gsm weight. The design shows overlapping palm-like leaves in cool French blue, denim, aqua and inky navy, set against a clean white background that makes the motif read sharply. Its pattern repeat is 43.5 cm vertically and 34 cm horizontally, creating a bold, rhythmic layout across the cloth. With 38.5 threads per cm, the surface appears tightly woven and neatly defined, which suits the crisp edges of the print.

How to use it

Use this blue-and-white colourway where you want a lively, resort-style statement without heavy colour. It works especially well with pale rattan, painted timber, or simple white upholstery to keep the leaf pattern feeling fresh.

Pair with crisp white or pale timber for a fresh, coastal-outdoor look.

Pairs well with

Manila French 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.
