Product Description
Candlelight Denim from the Friday Night by Karen Lewis for Andover Fabrics
A striking fan-motif stripe in layered denim blues
Candlelight Denim captures the glow and movement of flickering candle flames—one of the key inspirations behind Karen Lewis’s Friday Night collection. This design features rows of stylised fan motifs arranged in gently staggered vertical waves, creating a rhythmic effect reminiscent of light shimmering across a dinner table. The layered palette of denim blue, indigo and aqua gives the print a rich depth, balancing cool tones with a comforting warmth that feels both contemporary and timeless. The motif scale is versatile and offers a dynamic sense of motion without overwhelming the eye, making it an excellent blender or feature print for quilts and creative sewing.
Printed on premium 100% cotton (145gsm), Candlelight Denim provides a smooth, reliable hand ideal for precision patchwork, applique and directional cutting. The repeating vertical structure works beautifully in borders, sashing, string-pieced blocks and modern layouts where linear flow and subtle texture enhance the final composition. Bag makers will appreciate how the print adds visual interest to panels, pockets and linings, especially when paired with navy, charcoal or metallic hardware. For home décor, this denim-inspired palette brings a calm, sophisticated look to cushions, table runners, storage baskets and contemporary textile projects.
Within the wider Friday Night palette, Candlelight Denim pairs brilliantly with cool companions such as Glow Azure, Posy Cornflower and Serviette Cobalt, creating cohesive, ocean-inspired colour stories. It also offers striking contrast against warmer tones like Glow Coral, Posy Grande Tomato and Napkin Chili, adding balance and depth to multi-fabric combinations. Whether used as a focal stripe, a textured coordinate or a grounding colour element, Candlelight Denim delivers elegance, structure and a gently luminous quality—perfect for quilts, bags, décor pieces and textile art informed by the glow of the Friday night table.
