Product Description
Posy Iris from the Friday Night by Karen Lewis for Andover Fabrics
A soft, airy floral scattered across a pale iris-grey ground
Posy Iris is a gentle, delicately coloured print from Karen Lewis’s Friday Night collection, inspired by the fresh flowers that grace her dinner table each week. This small-scale version of the Posy motif features petite clustered blossoms arranged evenly across a pale iris-grey background. The floral groupings blend soft lilac, cornflower blue, aqua, mint and muted pink, grounded with subtle grey-green leaves. The overall effect is calm, airy and quietly uplifting—perfect for quilters and sewists who enjoy florals with a modern, restrained palette. The light ground keeps the print fresh and versatile, making it suitable for both low-volume work and brighter, more colourful compositions.
Printed on high-quality 100% cotton (145gsm), Posy Iris has a smooth, reliable hand ideal for piecing, English paper piecing, applique and small-scale patchwork. The dainty motifs make it excellent for fussy cutting, charm packs, scrappy quilts and projects requiring consistent repetition. In home décor sewing, the pale iris-grey background offers a soft, contemporary alternative to pure white, bringing gentle colour to cushions, table linens, nursery décor, and seasonal accessories. Bag makers will appreciate how the delicate clusters add subtle personality to linings and pockets while still pairing easily with structured exteriors.
Across the Friday Night palette, Posy Iris complements cooler tones such as Glow Azure, Bevel Powder and Napkin Grape, creating serene, cohesive colour stories. It also softens stronger shades like Posy Grande Tomato, Napkin Chili and Glow, balancing bolder palettes with clarity and a touch of calm. Whether used as a delicate floral feature or as a coordinating print within a larger project, Posy Iris brings refinement, softness and versatility to quilts, accessories and contemporary home décor inspired by the warmth and ritual of shared meals.
