Product Description
Flying Home from the Home For Christmas Collection by Fizzy Pop Prints for Thread & Ink Designs
Festive Birds Carrying Christmas Wishes Through a Starry Sky
Flying Home is a charming Christmas quilting cotton filled with stylised white birds soaring across a deep navy blue sky. Each bird is richly patterned with tiny stars, hearts and circular motifs in red, coral, pink, cream and warm gold, with the words Fly Home incorporated into the design. Small wrapped presents appear between the birds, while scattered clusters of turquoise, gold and cream stars create the feeling of a crisp winter night and add delicate detail to the dark background.
Part of the Home For Christmas Collection by Fizzy Pop Prints, Flying Home captures the idea of travelling home for Christmas in a playful, contemporary way. The large decorative birds create clear focal motifs, balanced by generous areas of navy and smaller stars, giving the print a pleasing sense of movement without feeling crowded. Individual birds and presents also offer excellent possibilities for fussy cutting, particularly for feature blocks, framed motifs and smaller seasonal projects.
Use this navy Christmas fabric as a feature print in festive quilts, where its darker ground can provide contrast amongst brighter reds, greens and creams. It would also work beautifully for Christmas cushions, table runners, wall hangings, fabric baskets and reusable gift bags. For accessories, the distinctive bird motifs can become feature panels on bags and pouches, while carefully cut sections could be used for fabric cards, ornaments or other small Christmas sewing projects.
The deep navy background brings a different dimension to the bright palette of the Home For Christmas Collection and makes Flying Home particularly useful for adding depth and contrast. Pair it with other fabrics from the collection for a coordinated festive project, or choose plain and blender fabrics in navy, cream, red, coral, pink, turquoise or warm gold. Cream will emphasise the pale birds, while red and pink coordinates draw attention to their intricate decorative patterns.
Printed on 100% cotton at 145gsm, Flying Home is a versatile quilt-weight cotton suitable for patchwork and quilting, home décor sewing, bags, accessories and general craft projects. An engaging choice for anyone looking for navy Christmas quilting fabric, festive bird fabric or contemporary Christmas cotton print in the UK.
