Turn up the heat with Cayenne, a spirited red that radiates energy and confidence from the very first glance. This vibrant shade leans slightly warm, reminiscent of sun-dried peppers and festive textiles, while the soft linen-inspired texture keeps it grounded and versatile. It’s the kind of color that instantly enlivens a quilt, adds personality to home décor, or creates eye-catching accents in bags and accessories. Pair it with crisp whites for a fresh, modern look or blend it with deeper tones for a rich, layered palette—either way, Cayenne brings a lively spark to every stitch.

For best results, machine wash cold on a delicate cycle with mild detergent, tumble dry low and remove promptly; do not bleach. Pre-washing is recommended.
