Oasis Fabrics Etchings 108" Wideback
Etchings by Oasis Fabrics is a 108" wideback print with a beautiful flowing, swirling etched texture — the pattern has movement and depth while reading as a tonal colourway from a distance. The full wideback buyer's guide lives in the 108" wideback fabric guide; the other tonal benches are Moda Grunge and Blank Quilting. Available in five colourways, making it one of the most versatile tonal wideback options at Linda's:
- Green — bright kelly green swirl; vivid and fresh
- Pink Fuchsia — vivid fuchsia-magenta swirl; bright and bold
- Grey Silver — cool light silver-grey swirl; calm and sophisticated
- Purple Lilac — bright lilac-purple swirl; vivid and romantic
- Natural Beige — warm natural beige swirl; neutral and versatile
Etchings works as a tonal backing for quilts in the same colour family, or as a contrast backing where the swirling texture adds energy and movement to the quilt reverse.

Frequently Asked Questions
What sets Etchings apart from other tonals?
Movement — the etched swirl flows where Grunge mottles and Stonehenge speckles. On the back of a quilt the swirl reads like water or wind, giving the reverse energy that static tonals don't have.
Which colourway is the workhorse?
Natural Beige backs the widest range of warm and traditional tops, with Grey Silver covering moderns. The saturated Green, Fuchsia, and Lilac are statement backs for tops in those families — vivid backing choices that few brands offer at 108".
Does a swirling print affect quilting design choice?
Only pleasantly — the busy swirl hides tension events and thread travel completely, and flowing edge-to-edge designs (waves, swirls, feathers) harmonise with the printed movement. It's among the most forgiving backings on the shelf.
