Product Description
Bevel Orchid from the Friday Night by Karen Lewis for Andover Fabrics
Soft, understated texture inspired by engraved candlesticks
Bevel Orchid brings a refined, minimalist aesthetic to the Friday Night collection, drawing directly from Karen Lewis’s engraved candlestick designs that sit at the heart of her Friday night dinner table. This elegant quilting cotton features a gently repeating bevel motif, arranged in neat, softly rounded shapes that create a sense of quiet movement across the surface. Presented in an exceptionally light, almost whisper-soft orchid tone, the pattern reads as a delicate textured neutral—ideal for quilters and makers looking for a subtle print that balances clarity with warmth. The fine lines and tonal contrast ensure the fabric works beautifully in both modern and traditional patchwork palettes, offering a versatile alternative to plain solids while maintaining a clean, fresh look.
Made from 100% cotton (145gsm) and measuring 44"/112cm wide, this premium quilting fabric provides excellent stitch definition whether used for piecing, applique, or detailed textile art. Its smooth hand and gentle drape make it adaptable for home décor sewing such as contemporary cushions, lightly structured table runners, or serene bedroom accessories. Bag makers will appreciate its subtle patterning, which adds interest without overwhelming seams, pockets or hardware details. As a near-neutral, Bevel Orchid also serves as a superb background fabric for sampler quilts, minimalist compositions, and low-volume patchwork layouts.
Pair Bevel Orchid with the deeper motifs and richer tones of the Friday Night collection—such as Candelabra, Glow, or the floral-inspired Posy prints—to build a layered palette that reflects the warmth and ritual of Karen Lewis’s dinner table inspiration. For makers who enjoy mixing textured blenders, this print also sits beautifully alongside Andover’s coordinating collections, offering a reliable option for sashing, borders and calm transitions within more intricate blocks. A thoughtful choice for quilters, sewists and textile artists seeking a quiet yet characterful low-volume print.
