Fabric Collection
Shimmer Tonals is a collection of pearl-finish tonal quilting cottons sold through Connecting Threads, with 37 colorways available at $13.96. Shades include Blackberry Pearl, Wine Pearl, Barn Red Pearl, Magenta Pearl, Royal Purple Pearl, Sapphire Pearl, Navy Pearl, Teal Pearl, Lagoon Pearl, and Baltic Sea Pearl.
A pearl finish is the gentlest kind of sparkle — a soft luster over a tonal ground rather than confetti glitter. This line runs rich and jewel-toned: Blackberry, Wine, and Barn Red on the warm side, Sapphire, Navy, Teal, and Baltic Sea on the cool, all with that quiet gleam that makes holiday and evening-sky quilts glow.

It's a jewel-box palette: deep reds and purples like Blackberry, Wine, Barn Red, Magenta, and Royal Purple, plus blues and teals including Sapphire, Admiral Blue, Navy, Teal, Lagoon, and Baltic Sea — each with a pearl finish.
The collection sells as quilting cotton yardage by the yard. The pearl shades coordinate with each other, so it's easy to pull a run of them for star points, borders, or a night-sky background.
Add it to your stash or tag it in a project so other quilters can see it in action.
