Product Description
Shadow Sharks Ultraviolet from the Floral Reef by Tula Pink for Free Spirit
Hidden Sharks Among Luminous Reef Florals
Shadow Sharks Ultraviolet is a vivid and intricately layered quilting cotton from Tula Pink’s imaginative Floral Reef collection for Free Spirit. Inspired by tropical reef ecosystems and underwater camouflage, this striking design combines flowing marine botanicals, shell-like florals, and hidden shark silhouettes into a fabric filled with movement and discovery. Rich ultraviolet pinks and glowing purples bloom across a soft cream background, while cool mint and aqua sea plants weave throughout the design, creating contrast and a beautifully balanced reef-inspired palette.
What makes this print especially captivating is the subtle appearance of lavender shark silhouettes drifting quietly beneath the floral layers. The hidden motifs create depth and visual storytelling without overpowering the design, giving the fabric an elegant sense of movement that reveals more detail the longer you look at it. Coral-inspired blossoms, flowing aquatic leaves, and shell forms add texture and rhythm, making this fabric ideal for projects where the artwork can remain beautifully visible.
Printed on premium 100% cotton quilting fabric with an approximate weight of 145gsm, Shadow Sharks Ultraviolet is suitable for patchwork quilting, bag making, accessories, textile art, and decorative home sewing. The larger flowing motifs work especially well for feature quilt blocks, dramatic borders, cushions, statement bags, and modern quilt backings. Pair it with tonal blenders and coordinating prints from the Floral Reef collection to create layered quilts inspired by coral reefs, tropical waters, and vibrant underwater life.
Perfect for makers searching for ocean-inspired quilting fabric, purple reef floral cotton fabric, hidden motif quilting cotton, or Tula Pink fabric in the UK, this distinctive print combines playful marine imagery with richly detailed floral artistry.
