Nutex · Cotton fabric by the metre
An earthy coordinate for a cohesive quilt.
Warm olive green and subtle darker mottling give Nutex Shadows Olive its textured appearance. This tonal cotton is useful when you want a green coordinate without a distinct flower, leaf or animal motif.
Ways to make it yours
Try it in quilt borders, patchwork blocks, bag linings or appliqué. Its earthy tone pairs naturally with botanicals, festive florals and warmer red accents.
Plan your cut
Use the olive to repeat a small colour from your feature print; this can make an assorted fabric selection feel more connected.

Before you start sewing
Check your pattern’s fabric requirements before ordering, including extra allowance for directional prints or motif matching. Follow any care guidance supplied with the fabric; test pressing and washing on a small offcut before treating the full piece.
