Northcott Stonehenge Gradations Fat Quarter Bundles and Strip Rolls
Northcott Stonehenge Gradations II takes the iconic Stonehenge mottled tonal fabric and adds an ombre colour graduation -- colours shift smoothly from light to dark across the collection, producing a cohesive range of tonal fabrics that work together beautifully for graduated colour quilts. The yardage line is covered in the Stonehenge 45" guide and Stonehenge wideback guide; precut strategy in the fat quarter bundle guide. Available in pre-cut formats across multiple colourways.
Available Colorways
- Crystal -- soft iridescent blues and silvers graduating through the cool spectrum
- Gemstone -- deep jewel tones graduating through purple, teal, and blue
- Mineral -- warm earth tones graduating through gold, rust, and brown
- Blue Planet -- cool blue earth tones graduating across the blue spectrum
- Oxidized Copper -- warm copper, rust, and earth tones with an oxidized metallic quality
- Mystic -- deep moody tones graduating through purple, black, and midnight blue
- Pine Ridge -- forest greens and natural earth tones graduating through the green spectrum
Pre-Cut Formats
Each colorway is available in multiple pre-cut formats:
- Fat Quarter Bundle -- 18"x22" cuts spanning the full graduation of the colorway
- Strip Roll -- 2.5" strips of the graduating colors for jelly-roll quilt construction
- Tiles -- 10" squares covering the graduation; layer cake format
Using Stonehenge Gradations
Stonehenge Gradations pre-cuts are designed to be used directly -- spread the fat quarters or strips across a project to create smooth, professional-looking colour graduation without individually selecting and ordering each tonal step. The ombre effect is pre-engineered in the bundle.

Frequently Asked Questions
What quilt designs showcase a graduated bundle?
Value-gradient designs — bargello, lone star, trip-around-the-world, and strip quilts where the light-to-dark flow IS the design. The bundle's engineered graduation does the value-sorting work that normally takes a design wall and squinting.
Why is Stonehenge ideal for gradation work?
The mottled mineral texture blurs the steps — adjacent gradation fabrics melt into each other where flat solids would show hard bands, so the ombre reads continuous. It's the same reason Stonehenge landscape quilts blend so convincingly.
Bundle, strip roll, or tiles for a bargello?
Strip roll — bargello is built entirely from strips, and the 2.5" roll arrives pre-cut in gradation order. Fat quarters suit lone stars and landscape work needing shaped pieces; tiles suit quick HST gradients.
