Father Christmas by Liz Goodrick-Dillon for Northcott Fabrics

Father Christmas Is Back

We are delighted to welcome back Father Christmas by Liz Goodrick-Dillon for Northcott Fabrics. This beloved collection captures the quiet magic of Christmas in a beautiful winter palette of snowy white, soft and mid blues, deep blue, and navy.

At the heart of the collection is the unforgettable Father Christmas panel upon which the collection is built. Father Christmas stands amid a snowy winter landscape surrounded by animals, creating a beautiful focal point for Christmas quilts and other holiday sewing patterns. The original panel is documented at approximately 24" x 43" and was digitally printed.

A Peaceful Winter Forest in Blue & White

The magic continues beyond the Father Christmas panel with beautiful winter scenery and animals throughout the collection. Snow-covered pine trees create a peaceful forest against wintry mid-blue, while woodland and winter animals bring the snowy landscape to life.

Christmas ornaments appear against white and dark blue backgrounds, while delicate snowflakes in mid-blue, light blue, and white provide classic winter coordinates. Snowy textures in deep blue and navy add depth and contrast while maintaining the collection's distinctive wintry palette.

A Beloved Collection by Liz Goodrick-Dillon

The return of Father Christmas is especially meaningful because its designer, Liz Goodrick-Dillon, has passed away. Her beautifully illustrated Father Christmas artwork and enchanting winter scenes live on through this special collection, allowing a new generation of quilters—and those who loved the collection the first time—to create with these designs once again.

From its iconic Father Christmas panel to snowy pine trees, winter animals, ornaments, snowflakes, and rich blue textures, Father Christmas is a timeless Christmas collection filled with nostalgia and winter beauty.
