Nutex · Cotton fabric by the metre
A confident red for borders, blocks and binding.
Nutex Shadows Red combines a bright red ground with deeper tonal mottling. The printed texture adds depth without introducing a large motif, making it a versatile coordinate for colourful patchwork and festive sewing.
Ways to make it yours
Use it for quilt blocks, binding, sashing, bag details or appliqué. It picks up the red flowers in Kiwiana prints and brings a strong accent to Christmas projects.
Plan your cut
A narrow red border can make a stronger statement than a large area. Try a folded strip against your feature fabric before committing to the width.

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.
