Product Description
Posy Cornflower from the Friday Night by Karen Lewis for Andover Fabrics
A delicate scattered floral in fresh cornflower blues and soft pastels
Posy Cornflower is a light, uplifting print from Karen Lewis’s Friday Night collection, inspired by the fresh flowers that sit at the centre of her Friday night dinner table. This smaller-scale version of the Posy motif features petite floral clusters scattered evenly across a crisp white ground. The blossoms blend soothing cornflower blue, lilac, periwinkle and soft aqua with tiny touches of yellow, creating a lively but gentle pattern that feels bright without being overpowering. The white background gives the design an airy, contemporary feel, making it particularly versatile for quilters who enjoy clean, modern palettes with subtle botanical charm.
Printed on premium 100% cotton (145gsm), Posy Cornflower offers a smooth, even hand, ideal for patchwork, small-scale piecing, English paper piecing and applique. The modest floral size makes it perfect for fussy cutting, charm square projects and scrappy quilts where consistent spacing adds balance and detail. In home décor sewing, the crisp white ground brightens cushions, table linens, nursery décor and fresh spring or summer accents. Bag makers will find the delicate clusters add colour and interest to linings, pockets and smaller panels, enhancing a project without overwhelming its structure.
Within the wider Friday Night palette, Posy Cornflower pairs beautifully with cool blenders such as Bevel Powder, Glow Azure and Napkin Grape, creating serene, harmonious schemes. It also provides a refreshing contrast to warmer tones like Glow and Posy Grande Tomato, helping to balance multi-colour layouts with clarity and light. Whether used as a delicate floral feature or a soft coordinating print, Posy Cornflower brings brightness, charm and a crisp botanical feel to quilts, bags, accessories and home décor inspired by the rituals and comfort of gathering at the table.
