Boxes in Smoke puts the collection's geometric box print in a gray colorway. It's from 4th and Main Favorites, designed by Scott Flanagan of 4th & Main Designs for Banyan Batiks by Northcott, and it's a 100% cotton batik with the depth and gentle variation of hand-dyed fabric.
Gray geometrics are some of the easiest fabrics to fit into a quilt. Smoke can bridge a vanilla background and black accents, fill in as a neutral in scrappy blocks, or act as the background for a modern quilt that needs something softer than white. The box design suits straight-line quilting and grid layouts, and it gives the quilt a tailored, structured look.
Smoke is also a good match for small projects like placemats, table runners, and pouches, where a gray batik looks polished and pairs with almost any décor. Combine it with Boxes in Vanilla and Midnight for a tonal set, or with Compass Star in Smoke when you want two prints in the same color.
