Grace ★★★★★

The fabric weight is perfect for a quilt backing — substantial but still soft to the touch. I'm already planning a second project around this cider colorway.

Sophia Y. ★★★★★

The cider background is such a warm, versatile neutral — I’ve already used it for two quilt backs and a table runner, and the 15-yard bolt means I don’t have to worry about running out mid-project. The fabric feels lovely and presses flat without any fuss.

Nicholas V. ★★★★☆

The floral palette in this cider background is softer than the photos suggest, which works perfectly for my quilt blocks. I just wish the bolt came in smaller cuts, since 15 yards is a lot to store until I’m ready to sew.
