Soft, luminous, and quietly expressive, Alabaster Hues is a thoughtfully designed fabric collection by Vanessa Lillrose & Linda Fitch, created for makers who love subtle colour, gentle texture, and beautifully balanced design.
Inspired by nature in its softer moments, the collection features floating florals, drifting stems, scattered dots, and radiating textures that suggest movement without visual noise. Each design is rendered in delicate white or pale neutral linework, layered over softly tinted backgrounds including mint, sky, sunshine yellow, pearl pink, lavender, and warm whites. The overall effect is calm, cohesive, and quietly modern.
Alabaster Hues is particularly well suited to patchwork and quilting, where it shines as a low-volume companion to bolder prints or as a complete palette in its own right. These fabrics work beautifully for backgrounds, sashing, borders, and tonal blocks, adding interest and depth without overpowering a design. The consistent scale and design language across the range make mixing and matching effortless.
Beyond quilting, the collection lends itself naturally to home décor sewing, bag making, and general craft projects. The soft florals and gentle geometrics are ideal for cushions, table runners, wall hangings, and accessories where harmony and texture are key.
Printed on 100% cotton quilting fabric (145gsm) by Robert Kaufman, Alabaster Hues offers excellent quality, a smooth handle, and reliable sewability — making it a pleasure to work with from first cut to final stitch.
