Red Ticking Stripe Fabric

Ticking stripe is a durable, traditional textile pattern featuring thin, symmetrical stripes—most commonly in navy or black—woven onto a sturdy cream or white cotton twill. Originally designed to create "ticks" (tightly woven mattress covers that kept feathers from poking through), it has evolved into a timeless interior design staple. Today, it is prized for its crisp, farmhouse aesthetic and its ability to act as a versatile neutral that pairs effortlessly with bolder prints.
