Product Description
Waves in Purple from the Hill Shine by Robert Kaufman
Flowing waves in rich jewel tones with a dramatic, modern edge
Waves in Purple is a striking cotton print that showcases the signature flowing wave motif of the Hill Shine collection in a deeper, moodier palette. Designed by Robert Kaufman, this fabric layers sweeping curves in shades of plum, aubergine, indigo, and deep blue, highlighted with soft lilac and fine accents of warm gold. The interplay of colour and line creates a sense of movement and depth, offering a bold yet refined visual statement.
The rhythmic wave pattern lends itself beautifully to patchwork and quilting projects where direction and flow play a key role. Used as a feature fabric, Waves in Purple adds drama to modern quilts, while its layered lines make it equally effective for borders, sashing, or quilt backs. The darker tones provide contrast and grounding, allowing lighter prints within the Hill Shine collection to shine when paired together.
For home décor sewing, this fabric brings richness and texture to cushions, runners, and soft furnishings, particularly in contemporary interiors or autumn and winter palettes. Bag makers and accessory sewists will find the wave motif adds interest and sophistication to tote bags, project bags, and pouches, especially when balanced with plain or subtly textured cottons. Pairing this print with coordinating blenders or calmer designs from the collection helps create depth and cohesion without overwhelming a project.
Printed on premium 100% cotton with a weight of 145gsm, Waves in Purple offers a smooth hand and reliable structure for quilting, patchwork, and general craft sewing. Whether used as a focal point or layered alongside complementary fabrics, this print delivers movement, richness, and versatility, making it an excellent choice for sewists seeking modern purple quilting cotton in the UK with a strong sense of design.
