Product Description
School Crossing Delphine from the Floral Reef by Tula Pink for Free Spirit
Tropical Reef Fish Dancing Across Vibrant Pink
School Crossing Delphine is a playful and vividly coloured quilting cotton from Tula Pink’s energetic Floral Reef collection for Free Spirit. Set against a bold delphine pink background scattered with soft lavender polka dots, this lively print features an assortment of beautifully illustrated tropical fish drifting across the fabric like a bustling underwater reef scene. Clownfish, angelfish, butterfly fish, and reef dwellers in saturated shades of coral, aqua, yellow, violet, and navy create a wonderfully animated design full of movement and personality.
The clean spotted background gives the detailed fish motifs room to shine, creating a fabric that feels both cheerful and visually balanced. The combination of playful novelty imagery and sophisticated colour layering makes this print especially versatile for modern quilts, children’s sewing projects, bags, pouches, accessories, and bright home décor accents. The individual fish motifs are also ideal for fussy cutting, appliqué work, feature blocks, and patchwork projects where smaller details can take centre stage.
Printed on premium 100% cotton quilting fabric with an approximate weight of 145gsm, School Crossing Delphine has a smooth handle suitable for patchwork quilting, bag making, accessories, and textile arts. Pair it with tonal blenders and coordinating reef-inspired prints from the Floral Reef collection to create colourful quilts and sewing projects inspired by tropical waters and coral reefs. It works particularly beautifully alongside aqua, lavender, coral, and navy fabrics for vibrant combinations full of contrast and playful detail.
Perfect for makers searching for tropical fish quilting fabric, pink ocean-themed cotton fabric, novelty reef quilting cotton, or Tula Pink fabric in the UK, this spirited design brings colour, humour, and underwater charm to a wide range of creative sewing projects.
