Product Description
Arctic from the Glaze III by Libs Elliot for Andover Fabrics
Cool ice blue with delicate speckled texture
Arctic from the Glaze III collection by Libs Elliot for Andover Fabrics brings the clarity and freshness of frozen landscapes to fabric form. Its pale blue base, softly brushed with tonal variation and overlaid with subtle speckling, evokes the look of frost-dusted skies or snow-lit ice. Calm and contemporary, Arctic is a versatile low-volume print that balances crisp coolness with gentle movement, making it ideal for quilting, home décor, and textile crafts where a refreshing neutral blue is needed.
For quilting, Arctic serves beautifully as a background, sashing, or pieced block fabric, offering a cool counterbalance to darker tones while blending seamlessly with softer neutrals. Its light, airy tone is especially effective in modern sampler quilts, star blocks, or low-volume designs. In home décor, Arctic’s frosted hue makes it a refined choice for cushions, runners, or lightweight drapery, adding a touch of understated elegance. Bag makers will appreciate its ice-toned neutrality, which pairs well with bold linings, metallic zips, or contrasting straps for a clean, modern look.
Made from 100% cotton and measuring 44”/112cm wide with a medium weight of 145gsm, Arctic is smooth, durable, and easy to sew for both machine and hand stitching. It coordinates effortlessly with darker shades like Indigo or Ink for striking contrast, or with warmer neutrals such as Cream and Oat for a softer palette. With its cool, frosted tone and painterly detail, Arctic is a versatile quilting cotton that enhances patchwork, décor, accessories, and textile art with a fresh modern edge.
