Product Description
X Toss Rust from the Moody Hues Collection by Nancy Rink for Andover Fabrics
Warm Rust Tonal with Playful Scattered Cross Motif
X Toss Rust is a warm and characterful quilting cotton featuring small scattered cross motifs arranged in a gently flowing pattern across a rich rust-coloured background. The tiny X shapes appear in deeper tonal shades of burgundy and cinnamon, creating a soft contrast that adds texture while maintaining the depth and warmth of the fabrics overall palette.
The irregular arrangement of the crosses forms a subtle movement across the surface, giving the fabric a relaxed, almost hand-drawn feel. From a distance, the pattern reads as a softly textured blender, while up close the small crosses create visual interest and rhythm. This makes X Toss Rust particularly versatile in patchwork quilts where tonal prints help connect larger, more detailed designs.
The warm rust tone brings an earthy richness to quilt palettes and pairs beautifully with deep greens, charcoals, golden hues, and rich plums within the Moody Hues collection. Its small-scale motif allows it to complement florals, vines, and geometric prints while adding a layer of subtle pattern and warmth.
X Toss Rust is ideal for quilt backgrounds, borders, sashing, and binding where a gentle tonal pattern provides texture without overpowering surrounding fabrics. It also works beautifully in bag making, pouches, and other sewing projects where a refined print adds depth and visual interest.
Printed on high-quality 100% cotton quilting fabric with a weight of 145gsm, X Toss Rust offers a smooth handle and dependable structure suitable for both machine and hand sewing. Combine it with coordinating florals, vines, and tonal prints from the Moody Hues collection to create quilts and sewing projects that feel balanced, layered, and rich in colour.
