Shimmer and Shine with Zen Chic's Latest Collection - The brand new collection is currently hitting stores

Introducing Shimmer: A Twist on Winter Elegance

Explore the sophisticated charm of Zen Chic's new 'Shimmer' fabric collection, where holiday spirit meets year-round elegance.


Hey there, fabulous quilters and fabric enthusiasts!

Brace yourselves because I'm about to spill some glittery beans on Zen Chic's latest creation – the dazzling 'Shimmer' fabric line. Remember the 'White Christmas' collection? That classy combo of creamy whites, sophisticated grays, bold blacks, and those oh-so-chic golden highlights? Well, guess what? We heard your requests, felt your quilting cravings, and we're back with a shimmering sequel!

A Winter Wonderland in Fabric Form

Picture this: a serene winter night, the world blanketed in glistening snow, the sparkle of ice on branches, and the warm glow of candlelight. That's the essence of 'Shimmer'. With its graceful palette of cream, gray, black, and a whisper of gold, these fabrics are like your favorite holiday melody played all year round.

And here's the cherry on top: unlike typical holiday fabrics screaming Santa and reindeer, 'Shimmer' is timelessly elegant. Think classic, think versatile - because these patterns will make your quilts not just holiday specials, but year-round masterpieces!
