Product Description
Pebbles Shark from the Heima by Gudrun Erla for Andover Fabrics
Shark-grey pebble texture for modern, coastal-inspired sewing
Pebbles Shark is a poised grey blender that echoes smooth stones along Iceland’s tidal edges. Tiny rounded shapes settle into a close, even scatter across a calm shark-grey ground, creating a small-scale texture that reads almost solid from a distance while revealing gentle movement up close. The hue sits between slate and storm-grey—cool, contemporary and endlessly versatile—so it anchors mixed palettes without feeling flat. True to the spirit of Heima, where texture and colour are drawn from landscape and memory, this dark-to-mid neutral complements the collection’s glacier blues, moss greens, earthy browns and berry reds. As a grey quilting cotton blender, it provides tidy value contrast in modern piecing and traditional blocks alike, lending quiet definition to backgrounds and negative space without visual noise. Naturally integrated search phrases include: stone grey cotton print UK, pebble texture quilting fabric, neutral background quilting cotton, Scandinavian quilting blender.
Use Pebbles Shark for understated quilt backgrounds, sashing that connects varied blocks, or borders and bindings that frame with subtle texture. It’s elegant for home décor sewing—cushions, table runners, placemats and fabric storage—bringing a clean Nordic mood that’s easy to live with. Bag makers will appreciate how the fine motif curves neatly around seams and partners well 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: add Glacier Ice or Waterfall for cool clarity, Mallard or Aurora for a botanical blue-green story, Saddle or Coffee Break for warmth, or Obsidian and Ash for graphic contrast. Whether you’re building a coastal-inspired palette, piecing a contemporary throw or lining a handmade bag, this shark-grey pebble blender offers dependable elegance, tactile interest and season-spanning usefulness.
