Product Description
Butterflies Blue from the Tropica by Makower UK Collection
Vivid butterflies floating across a rich teal-blue backdrop
Butterflies Blue from the Tropica Collection by Makower UK offers a vibrant, lively scattering of butterflies set against a deep teal-blue ground. Each butterfly is illustrated in bright tropical tones—fuchsia, violet, turquoise, aqua, and soft pink—with delicate wing markings that add a sense of texture and movement. The tonal dotted background contributes subtle depth, complementing the butterfly motifs without overwhelming them. Made from premium 100% cotton at 145gsm and a width of 44"/112cm, this fabric handles beautifully for patchwork, home décor, bag making, and general craft projects. Quilters will enjoy its versatility for borders, blocks, sashing, fussy cutting, or binding, especially when paired with coordinating Tropica prints. Its rich background colour provides impactful contrast, making the butterfly motifs stand out whether used sparingly or across larger surface areas. In home décor projects, Butterflies Blue adds a touch of playful elegance to cushions, bunting, decorative baskets, and children’s room accents. Bag makers will appreciate how the crisp cotton structure supports tote bags, zipped pouches, makeup bags, and statement linings that reveal a burst of vibrant colour when opened. As part of the wider Tropica range, this design pairs seamlessly with the collection’s botanicals, mosaics, and striped blenders. Combine it with cool aqua prints for a calming palette, or coordinate with fuchsia and purple tones for a bright, energetic tropical look. Makers searching for long-tail keywords such as “teal butterfly quilting cotton UK,” “blue tropical butterfly fabric,” or “vibrant butterfly print for patchwork” will find Butterflies Blue an ideal match. With its rich colouring and joyful motif, this print brings a fresh, uplifting spirit to quilts, accessories, and creative craft sewing.
