Product Description
Glacier Ash from the Heima by Gudrun Erla for Andover Fabrics
Charcoal basalt rock texture — a grounded Nordic neutral
Glacier Ash distils Iceland’s volcanic terrain into a refined blender in layered tones of charcoal, slate and soft graphite. The crystalline rock motif suggests river-worn stones beneath clear water; from a distance it reads almost solid, while up close it offers gentle movement and depth. Part of Heima—a collection shaped by landscape and the feeling of home—this dark grey quilting cotton balances the palette’s glacier blues, moss greens and berry reds with calm, modern restraint. Use it wherever a confident neutral is needed: to ground complex palettes, to add shaded value in blocks, or to bring quiet texture to negative space. Naturally integrated long-tail phrases include: charcoal grey quilting cotton UK, Iceland-inspired quilting fabric, textured blender for patchwork, geological rock texture fabric.
In quilts, Glacier Ash is excellent for star points, flying geese, sashing and borders that frame without shouting. For home décor sewing, it’s a practical choice for cushions, runners, placemats and fabric storage baskets, delivering a clean, Scandi feel. Bag makers will appreciate how the small-to-medium motif curves neatly around seams and pairs beautifully with nickel, gunmetal or matte black hardware on zipped pouches, organisers and structured totes. Printed on premium 100% cotton, width 44"/112cm, weight 145gsm, it sews smoothly, presses crisply and suits both machine and hand quilting. For cohesive results, pair with other Heima prints: cool Glacier Ice and Waterfall for contrast, earthy Saddle for warmth, Basalt and Rhyolite tones for definition, or a pop of Rhubarb red for energy. This adaptable dark neutral supports patchwork & quilting, home décor, accessories and textile art with elegant, nature-led texture.
