Product Description
Fairytale Cream from the The Nutcracker Collection by Makower UK
A Light and Playful Celebration of Nutcracker Magic
Fairytale Cream from The Nutcracker Collection by Makower UK brings the much-loved imagery of the classic Christmas story to a warm cream background. Nutcracker soldiers, ballerinas and the Mouse King appear amongst decorated Christmas trees, drums, sleighs, ballet shoes, crowns and golden trumpets, creating a delightful illustrated print with plenty to discover. Candy canes, gingerbread figures, wrapped presents and musical notes continue the story, while holly, berries, poinsettias, leafy sprigs and delicate snowflakes fill the spaces between. Traditional reds and greens are softened by powder blue, blush pink and warm gold, giving this colourway a light, fresh quality while retaining its unmistakably festive character.
The abundance of individual motifs makes Fairytale Cream especially appealing for fussy cutting. Frame a ballerina, Nutcracker, Mouse King, Christmas tree or tiny sleigh within individual quilt blocks, use larger sections to showcase the complete pattern, or select smaller details for English Paper Piecing and appliqué. It is equally suited to Christmas stockings, advent calendars, tree skirts, table runners, festive cushions and fabric decorations. For bag making and accessories, the cream background works beautifully for project bags, tote bags, zipper pouches, fabric baskets and handmade gift bags.
As a feature print within The Nutcracker Collection, Fairytale Cream brings together the collection's ballet, music and traditional Christmas themes. Pair it with Fairytale Blue to repeat the storybook motifs across contrasting light and dark backgrounds, or coordinate it with the Twinkle prints, Candy Cane Stripes and Foliage designs. The cream ground also makes it easy to draw out individual colours with red, green, blue, pink or neutral blenders, creating plenty of possibilities for coordinated festive projects.
