Merlot is a deep wine red with an elegant, slightly muted tone. It suits refined holiday quilts and rich dark accents. The Canvas print lays a subtle, artist-canvas texture over the cotton, so it reads like a solid from across the room but shows soft, worn movement up close. This colorway is Canvas 9030-24, part of Deborah Edwards’ blender collection for Northcott.
