Product Description
Dance in Sky from the Alabaster Hues by Vanessa Lillrose & Linda Fitch for Robert Kaufman
Lively white florals drifting across a soft sky blue ground
Dance in Sky brings a sense of gentle movement and light-hearted energy to the Alabaster Hues collection. This all-over floral print features delicately sketched white blooms and slender leaves scattered across a clear, airy sky blue background. The flowers overlap and flow naturally, creating a design that feels lively yet calm, with plenty of space for the eye to rest. It’s a balanced print that offers visual interest without becoming busy.
The sky blue colourway is fresh and uplifting, sitting comfortably between pastel and neutral. It works beautifully in patchwork and quilting as a feature print for larger blocks, borders, or quilt backs, while still being gentle enough to mix with more detailed or colourful fabrics. The floral motif adds softness and movement, making it a lovely choice for quilts that aim for a relaxed, contemporary feel rather than strong contrast.
For home décor sewing, Dance in Sky lends itself well to projects where a light, botanical presence enhances the overall mood. Cushion covers, table runners, fabric wall hangings, and soft furnishings all benefit from the cheerful yet restrained floral pattern. In bag making and accessories, this floral quilting cotton works nicely for exterior panels or linings, bringing a calm, decorative touch to project bags, tote bags, and everyday accessories.
Printed on 100% cotton with a weight of 145gsm, Dance in Sky has a smooth, stable hand that is easy to work with for piecing, applique, and general craft sewing. Designed by Vanessa Lillrose & Linda Fitch for Robert Kaufman, it coordinates effortlessly with the rest of the Alabaster Hues collection. Pair it with white-on-white prints, soft mint greens, gentle yellows, or textured blenders from the range to create quilts and sewing projects that feel cohesive, fresh, and thoughtfully composed.
