Product Description
Happy Paws - Stripes by Nutex
Bold, playful stripes with a bright, modern rhythm
Happy Paws - Stripes by Nutex is a lively, graphic cotton print designed to bring energy and structure to your sewing projects. This striking stripe design features crisp vertical bands of colour set against a deep black background, with repeating tones of turquoise, sunshine yellow, apple green, orange, and red. The clean, evenly spaced stripes create a strong visual rhythm that feels playful yet controlled, making it an ideal coordinate within the Happy Paws collection.
The bold contrast between the saturated colours and dark ground gives this fabric excellent definition, perfect for adding impact to patchwork and quilting projects. Use it to frame quilt blocks, add punchy borders, or introduce movement as sashing between feature prints. The directional stripe works beautifully when used vertically or horizontally, and can also be cut on the bias for a more dynamic effect. Paired with character prints or novelty motifs from the same collection, it helps ground busy designs while maintaining a cheerful, cohesive look.
For bag making and accessories, Happy Paws - Stripes offers a confident, contemporary feel. It works particularly well for tote bags, zip pouches, project bags, and linings where a pop of colour is desired. In home décor sewing, this stripe print is well suited to cushions, table runners, pet accessories, and playful storage solutions, bringing a sense of fun without feeling overly themed.
Printed on 100% cotton with a smooth handle and a weight of 145gsm, this fabric is easy to cut, press, and sew. It holds its shape well, making it suitable for quilting, general craft sewing, and textile arts projects that benefit from a little structure. For best results, pair Happy Paws - Stripes with coordinating blenders, solids, or novelty prints from the Happy Paws range, pulling out key colours such as yellow, teal, or red to create balance and visual flow across your finished piece.
