Check Mates by Anna Maria Textiles for Northcott — Alternate – Branch

Warm, earthy, and richly autumnal — Alternate in Branch is a stunning multi-colour check from the Check Mates collection by Anna Maria Textiles for Northcott. Larger squares arranged in alternating rows of deep burgundy-wine, warm terracotta-orange, soft blush-peach, dusty periwinkle-blue, and pale lavender-grey interlock across the fabric, rendered with Anna Maria’s signature woven, linen-like texture. The palette is a masterclass in earthy sophistication — warm and cool tones balanced with the intuitive confidence that is Anna Maria’s hallmark, creating a print that feels simultaneously bold and deeply harmonious.

Alternate – Branch reads as a rich, complex mosaic from a distance — warm and inviting, with the depth of a well-curated autumn palette — and reveals its beautifully structured check arrangement up close. It’s the print that brings instant warmth and colour intelligence to any project, pairing beautifully with the terracottas, burgundies, dusty blues, and warm neutrals that run throughout the Check Mates collection.
