Stonehenge - BASICS

Stonehenge Basics by Linda Ludovico for Northcott is a collection built to do exactly what a great basic should do—work almost anywhere while adding far more visual interest than a flat solid.

Inspired by the colors and textures found in nature, Stonehenge has become one of Northcott’s signature fabric families. Linda Ludovico describes the inspiration behind Stonehenge as coming from natural materials such as marble, wood, and stone, giving the fabrics their distinctive mottled, dimensional appearance.

The 29 fabric SKUs in Stonehenge Basics provide a broad palette ranging from light neutrals and earthy tones to reds, golds, greens, turquoise, blues, purples, gray, and black. Northcott currently lists colors including Desert Sand, Cherry Blossom, Poppy Red, Cardinal, Cabernet, Patriot Blue, Sapphire, Navy, Sunglow, Mustard, Pumpkin Spice, Clearwater, Adriatic Sea, Shamrock, Peacock, Pine, Magenta, Gray, Charcoal, and additional essential neutrals.

What makes Stonehenge Basics especially useful is its tonal texture. From a distance, these fabrics can function much like solids; up close, the mottled stone-like surface adds depth and movement. That makes them excellent choices for piecing, backgrounds, borders, sashing, appliqué, landscape quilts, traditional quilts, modern projects, patriotic quilts, masculine designs, and anywhere a project needs color without introducing another competing print.
