This fabric is from the Holiday Classics collection by Rifle Paper Co., manufactured by Cotton + Steel.
-
The print is called “Partridge” (or “Partridge in Navy”) and is rendered on a deep navy background. The design features a stylized, symmetrical motif reminiscent of a pear tree (referencing the “partridge in a pear tree”), with paired partridges, pears, berries, leaves, floral elements, and small star-like shapes.
-
There are metallic gold accents in the print, which give it a subtle shine and a festive holiday feel.

Uses & Applications
This is a quilting-weight cotton, so it's very versatile:
-
Quilts — because of its weight and pattern size, it's great for both focal blocks and accent pieces.
-
Decorative sewing — ideal for holiday-themed home decor: table runners, throw pillows, tree skirts.
-
Gifts & accessories — could work for tote bags, pouches, or holiday fabric gifts.
Aesthetic / Design Feel
-
The navy base gives it a rich, classic look — less “bright Christmas red” and more elegant, slightly muted holiday palette.
-
The metallic gold details elevate it — adds a refined, vintage-inspired holiday charm rather than being overtly flashy.
-
The nature motifs (birds, pears, foliage) bring a folk-art / Scandinavian feel, blending whimsical and traditional.
