Plaid in Brown is a classic brown and cream check from Harvest on the Prairie, the autumn collection designed by Modern Prairie for Riley Blake Designs. It has the cozy, homespun look of a flannel shirt or a picnic blanket, printed on 100% cotton quilting fabric.
Plaids and checks bring a quilt instant farmhouse character. Use Plaid in Brown for binding, where the check wraps the edge with a crisp pattern, or cut it on the bias for a fun diagonal look. It also works for block pieces, sashing, and borders, and it gives the collection's sunflower and floral prints a sturdy, rustic partner. Because it's a printed plaid, it sews like any quilting cotton, without the shifting you can get with woven plaids.
Beyond quilts, this is a great choice for aprons, napkins, table runners, and pillow covers you'll want to pull out every fall. Pair it with Stripe and Floral Geo in Brown for a coordinated set, or with Plaid in Suede and Wine for a stack of plaids in three colors.
