Andover | patchwork fabric | Perfect Day | Swallows White

"Perfect Day – Swallows White" by Libs Elliott for Andover Fabrics is a modern patchwork fabric made from 100% cotton. Finely drawn, flying swallows adorn a light, white background – graphic, airy, and with the collection's typical playful, contemporary character. The calm white background makes "Swallows White" a wonderful low-volume partner, allowing more striking prints to breathe while still bringing its own charming motif.

You can use it to sew modern quilts and quilt backings, cushion covers, table runners and placemats, project bags, shoppers, cosmetic bags, utility bins, pencil cases, or light summer clothing. As a calm background fabric, it is ideal for highlighting colorful focus prints from the series – or as an airy binding.

It is 100% cotton in consistently good patchwork quality – firm enough for clean seams yet pleasantly supple. With a width of approx. 112 cm, the fabric is easy to cut and sew, best with a universal needle size 80. Care: Machine wash at 30 °C, pre-wash before cutting, do not tumble dry hot.
