Whales White is the brightest colorway of the whale print in Love You to the Moon Flannel, designed by Echo Park Paper Co. for Riley Blake Designs. Light blue whales with little navy water spouts swim in every direction across a white background. Soft tan shading along their bellies gives them a bit of dimension.
Unlike the tonal Whales Powder or the dark Whales Navy, this version has strong contrast between the whales and the background, so they stand out clearly even from across a room. The tossed layout has no right side up, which makes it easy to cut for blocks, borders, or backings without wasting fabric.
It is a natural choice for an ocean-themed nursery or a baby boy’s quilt, and the soft blue also fits a gender-neutral palette. For a coordinated set, pair it with Gingham Blue, Stars Navy, or Dots Powder. This 100% cotton flannel works well for receiving blankets, crib sheets, bibs, burp cloths, and toddler pajamas. White backgrounds show stains, so it suits projects that will be washed often anyway. Prewash before cutting to reduce shrinkage.
