All about protea print floral velvet fabric

This is a soft 100% polyester printed velvet, with a sharp, clear print of dramatic protea flowers. This pink floral velvet holds a beautiful sheen in the light, and it is incredibly soft to the touch. Velvet is tactile, beautiful and suitable for curtains,  cushions, soft furnishing and craft projects. The term "velvet" refers to the weave, not the material, as velvet fabrics can be made from just about any fibre. Velvet is made using is woven as a double cloth, using a special technique to give the plush texture.

How to use a modern pink flower velvet fabric

While velvet was traditionally made from silk, velvets made from synthetic materials like this one are just as beautiful but a lot more hard-wearing. We'd recommend this printed velvet for projects like:

  • Luxe curtains
  • A feature headboard
  • Upholstering a footstool
  • Recovering a statement chair

We don't recommend printed velvets for roman blinds because we've found that the stitch lines will show up the base of the pile which will spoil the appearance of the finished blind.

Help with measuring

Before you buy

Colours can appear differently on screen, so although every care has been taken to represent them accurately, some variations may occur from real life. To check colours are as you expect we recommend you order a sample, to see and feel the fabric in the flesh. Free samples are available for all fabrics! Colours can also vary between dye lots, so please ensure you order enough for your project.

So we can package your fabrics beautifully for posting, they will be taken off the roll and folded. We try our best to always send fabric in one continuous length although this is not always possible, we will contact you if this is the case. Some fabrics are also on sale in our shop in Bridport, Dorset, so on rare occasions stock may not be available where it appears to be online. We do our best to avoid this and many fabrics can be reordered, again if this occurs we will contact you to discuss the options.

To keep your lovely new fabrics in the best condition we recommend checking out the Product Info for details on how to care for them. Washable fabrics should always be hand washed, before cutting and making your projects, in order to allow for shrinkage.

For best results we recommend curtains should be dry-cleaned. To order curtains contact us with your measurements and request a quote.
