Product Description
Heather Sand from the Wildflower Cottage by Renee Nanneman for Andover Fabrics
Warm sand ground with delicate heather sprigs
Heather Sand blends natural warmth with botanical delicacy, making it a versatile choice within the Wildflower Cottage collection. A sandy beige ground is covered with fine sprigs of heather in muted purples and soft browns, creating a detailed all-over pattern reminiscent of flowering heather on countryside paths. The small-scale repeat offers subtle texture from afar and intricate charm up close, perfect for adding depth and refinement to handmade projects. Designed by Renee Nanneman for Andover Fabrics, this fabric reflects the collection’s inspiration of cottage gardens, wildflower borders and cobblestone walks softened by moss and blooms. In quilting, Heather Sand is ideal for pieced blocks, sashing, borders and backgrounds, where its muted tones enhance without overwhelming. It also works beautifully for quilt backings and bindings, providing continuity across designs. For home décor sewing, its sandy neutral palette makes it suitable for cushion covers, curtains, table runners and placemats, blending easily with a wide range of interiors. Bag makers will find its fine sprig repeat excellent for linings, organisers and tote exteriors, offering understated decoration. Seasonal sewing projects—from springtime gifts to festive accents—also benefit from its timeless versatility. Made from 100% cotton at 145gsm, it presses crisply, handles smoothly, and quilts evenly, whether stitched by hand or machine. For coordinated schemes, pair Heather Sand with other Wildflower Cottage prints: crimson reds and buttercup yellows offer lively contrast, while pewter greys and linen tones create balance. Whether you are crafting a quilt, refreshing your home décor, or sewing accessories, this sand-toned heather sprig cotton adds warmth, elegance and enduring cottage charm to every project.
