Kelly is a bright kelly green from Shannon Fabrics’ Cuddle Extra Wide line. It’s a solid minky with a plush 3mm pile, made from 100% polyester, and 90" wide for quilt backs that need little or no piecing.
This cheerful, saturated green brings energy to the back of a quilt. It’s a natural fit for St. Patrick’s Day and Christmas quilts, kids’ and sports-themed throws, and bright modern quilts, and it’s a popular team color for stadium blankets. It also makes a fun backing for frog, dinosaur, and garden-themed kids’ quilts.
Cuddle is also great for apparel, stuffed animals, pillows, baby blankets, and throws. Pair Kelly with quilts in white, navy, red, or bright rainbow colors. Compare it with Emerald for a deeper jewel tone and Forest for a dark evergreen. A walking foot and extra clips help keep minky layers aligned as you sew.
