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

Bold, joyful, and bursting with colour — Alternate in Rattle is a spectacular multi-colour check from the Check Mates collection by Anna Maria Textiles for Northcott. Where the Gameboard print is a refined two-tone, Alternate is a full colour celebration — larger squares arranged in alternating rows of vivid turquoise, soft ice blue, periwinkle-purple, dusty lavender, olive-chartreuse, and warm sand-cream, all rendered with Anna Maria’s signature woven, linen-like texture. Each row brings a different colour, and together they create a print that is graphic, rhythmic, and irresistibly cheerful.

Alternate – Rattle reads as a vibrant, multi-colour mosaic from a distance — a print that draws the eye and holds it — and reveals its beautifully structured check arrangement up close. It’s the print that does the colour work for you, bringing together a perfectly curated palette of cool blues, warm greens, soft purples, and creamy neutrals in a single, show-stopping fabric.
