Product Description
Ribbon Vanilla from the Peppermint Twist by Robert Kaufman Fabrics by Robert Kaufman Fabrics for Robert Kaufman Fabrics
Flowing evergreen ribbons on warm vanilla with gold metallic
Ribbon Vanilla is a refined festive stripe that feels both classic and contemporary. Undulating bands of fir-green “ribbon candy” flow across a warm vanilla ground, dotted with tiny gold baubles that glint as the light moves. The line work is crisply edged in metallic, produced in Japan where premium metallic printing is renowned for its clarity and lustre. Woven on a smooth 100% cotton quilting cloth (145gsm), the fabric presses beautifully, pieces cleanly and has a satisfying hand for patchwork, home décor and accessories.
Stripes are the workhorse of a Christmas stash. Run Ribbon Vanilla lengthwise for sashing, borders and binding with a gentle wave, or cut cross-grain to create lively candy-stripe effects on stars, flying geese and log cabins. It’s a natural for table runners, placemats and napkins, where the metallic dots offer a festive sparkle without overwhelming your place settings. Bag makers will appreciate the rhythmic repeat on zipper pouches, project bags and tote handles; it also makes handsome trims, pocket edges and bindings that lift plain solids and blenders. The versatile palette—vanilla, evergreen and warm gold—bridges traditional red–green schemes and calmer neutral décor.
For cohesive projects and easy cross-sells, pair Ribbon Vanilla with coordinates from the Peppermint Twist collection: introduce the ditsy shimmer of “Sweets” for texture, add focal motifs with “Peppermint Holly” or “Peppermint Sprigs”, bring structure with “Geo Trees”, and deepen tone with the swirling “Feathers”. Blend confidently with solids in holly, pine, scarlet and cream, or soften with low-volume blenders for a chic, Scandinavian-inspired look. Whether you’re binding a statement quilt, building a coordinated table set, or adding polished trims to stockings and reusable gift wrap, this metallic Christmas quilting cotton offers movement, shine and timeless seasonal style. A reliable choice for patchwork & quilting, home décor, bag making and general craft sewing, it’s the stripe you’ll reach for again and again.
