We've chosen [Scarlet](https://www.shannonfabrics.com/index.php?main_page=advanced_search_result&search_in_description=1&keyword=scarlet)! We selected Scarlet as it embraces us with love and warmth.  The color scarlet is associated with courage, passion, heat and joy.  Scarlet is defined as a bright red hue with hints of orange. For a sophisticated color palette, combine scarlet with neutrals like black, white, silver, sand and beige. Combine it with warm grey, chocolate brown and evergreen for a warm and earthy palette. For a more daring, bold, and bright palette, combine scarlet with bright yellow, aqua, vivid green and orange hues. Shannon Fabrics offers Scarlet in multiple substrates: [Cuddle](https://www.shannonfabrics.com/cuddle?view=all)®, [Luxe Cuddle](https://www.shannonfabrics.com/luxe-cuddle?view=all)®, [Embrace® double gauze](https://www.shannonfabrics.com/embrace?view=all), [Faux Fur](https://www.shannonfabrics.com/faux-fur?view=all) and [Silky Satin](https://www.shannonfabrics.com/satin/silky-satin-solids). Scarlet comes in yardage and is also featured in many of our kits.
