Shade: Papaver Power is printed with a complementary palette of muted watercolour-like hues. A flax beige background gives the impression of natural linen and sports a design of grand Icelandic blue poppies sitting companionably with golden ochre hued poppies borne upon tall and slender stems of muted, dried herb-green. The recurring use of muted grey beige throughout the design gives an air of calmness in an otherwise bold design.
Design: An elegant, nature-inspired printed design of an easy watercolour style depicting large poppies and elegant stems, buds and foliage.
Style: This large, floral, printed design has a faded elegance, perfect for a starting point for your interiors inspiration. Use this as the main focus within a room, or choose it as an interesting accent of colour and design. This can be styled in a contemporary manner alongside clean, boxy silhouette furniture or, with vintage linens and cotton lace for a retro, cottage core style.

Texture: This 100% cotton curtain fabric has the soft yet sturdy touch of cotton with a lightly textured surface and an authentic rustic feel.
Handle: This 100% cotton fabric has a sturdy, stable handle with a slight translucency when held to the light. Its durable composition makes it exceptionally hard-wearing, designed to stand the test of time.
Drape: A heavy drape quality will hang nicely at length and form neat tucks and gathers, perfect for many styles of curtains, blinds, pelmets, and all the other stylish home furnishings you will want to create from this excellent fabric.
Garment Suggestions:
Types: Although this is a fabric designed for curtaining, we have seen some truly unique garments made from our cotton curtain materials, such as utility style pieces, jackets and dungarees. Perhaps a bold choice for a retro 50s style, fit and flare statement dress.
When using Furnishing fabrics for garments, we would always recommend conducting your own wash and wear tests.
Patterns: Consider patterns such as Elodie Dress, the Megan Nielsen Protea Capsule Wardrobe, the Ilford Jacket, the Lynsey Dungarees, the Osborn Dungarees or the Cordelia Trousers.
Other Uses:
Accessories: Create matching garment accessories to go with your outfits, such as a clutch and make-up bags, hats and caps.
Furnishings: Create opulent furnishing pieces for the home; blinds, curtains, upholstery (sofa, armchair, etc), dining chairs, scatter cushions and furnishing accessories (door stops, draught excluders, etc.). Re-cover old chairs and other furniture for a new lease of life.
Upcycling: Try making doorstops, draught excluders and more. Use your smaller scraps to customise denim jackets and jeans with appliquéd floral details.
