Denim délavé Sparkle de Sparkler Basics par Melissa Mortenson pour Riley Blake

The plus-sign pattern is subtle enough to read as texture from a distance, which is exactly what I wanted for a quilt backing. The gold sparkle catches light without feeling gaudy, and the bleached denim base is soft right out of the bolt.

The gold sparkle in the bleached denim really pops against the lighter wash—it’s subtle enough for everyday wear but adds a nice festive touch. I’m using it for a throw pillow, and the fabric feels sturdy yet soft to work with.

The scattered plus signs give it a fun, modern feel without being too busy, and the bleached denim shade pairs well with both dark and light fabrics. I used it for a quilt backing and the gold sparkle catches the light just enough to make it special. Fabric has a nice, sturdy hand for quilting too.
