It is denser and heavier than our Everyday line, closely woven, and it takes a crease and holds a quarter inch seam the way quilting cotton should. This one arrives as a single 5 yard cut, 180 inches long, ready to cut into from wherever you like.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eAbout this navy\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNightwood is the darkest print in the collection and the one that does the anchoring. The ground is a deep navy, near enough to black across a room. Over it stands a whole wood: pines and birches and round headed trees in sage, olive, ochre and pale grey blue, with foxes running between them and squirrels in the branches.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe animals are the reason people pick it up, and they are also the reason to think about scale before you cut. The trees stand several inches tall. At full width the print tells a story. Cut into two inch squares it stops being a wood and becomes a mottled navy texture, flecked with colour. Both are good. They are just not the same fabric, so decide which one you want before the rotary cutter comes out.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhere this print works\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCut large, it is a panel, a backing, a tote, a cushion front, or the outer border that frames everything inside it. Cut small, it is the dark value in a pieced quilt, and a very forgiving one, because a print this busy hides a seam that runs a thread wide.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eIt is the dark end of this collection.

It is not wide backing.
