Product Description
Glacier Ice from the Heima by Gudrun Erla for Andover Fabrics
Pale glacier-blue rock texture with crystalline depth
Glacier Ice distils the translucence of Iceland’s icefields into a refined blender: a pale glacier blue layered with frosted grey and steel-blue flecks, like fractured crystals held in clear water. The small-to-medium scale texture gives gentle movement while reading nearly solid from a distance, making it an elegant choice for modern piecing and classic blocks. Rooted in the Heima palette—natural, grounded and Nordic in spirit—this print offers cool clarity that balances the collection’s moss greens, basalt greys and berry reds. As a pale blue quilting cotton, it suits low-contrast schemes, winter palettes and coastal-inspired patchworks, while the geological motif adds quiet interest to negative space. Naturally integrated search cues include: glacier blue cotton print UK, Iceland-inspired quilting fabric, textured blender for patchwork, pale blue quilting cotton for backgrounds.
Use Glacier Ice for calm quilt backgrounds, tidy sashing that links mixed palettes, or star points and flying geese where a light value still carries texture. In home décor sewing, it’s fresh for cushions, table runners, placemats and fabric baskets, lending a clean Scandi feel. Bag makers will appreciate how the motif curves neatly around seams and hides daily wear—ideal for project pouches, zip-top totes and organisers. Printed on premium 100% cotton, width 44"/112cm, weight 145gsm, it sews smoothly, presses crisply and is suitable for both machine and hand quilting. For a cohesive project, pair with other Heima prints: anchor with charcoal rock tones for definition, warm with currant reds, or echo the landscape with mossy greens. This versatile pale blue quilting fabric brings the cool light of Iceland’s glaciers to quilts, home décor and accessories without overpowering your design.
