    Off hand I would have said it's a Civil War print.

    The name “shirting” fabric comes to mind. Tiny prints that were used to make men’s shirts about 150 years ago.

    The design is woven in, so we call it a "woven." Moda makes quite a few wovens, Corey Yoder recently had a whole line of pastel colored wovens that were beautiful. Here's a link with some pictures. https://blog.fatquartershop.com/how-...h-corey-yoder/

    Diamond Textiles also makes some beautiful wovens. https://www.google.com/search?q=Dimo...biw=1600&hl=en

    Other wovens are muted colors and used for the background of wool applique.

    It looks like a Moda print to me, possibly Lori Holt or another Riley Blake designer, because of the bright aqua. Riley Blake uses lots of bright aqua.

    Do you actually have a piece of this fabric? Just curious. Depending on the weight and the weave as well as the size of the pattern it could be one of a variety of fabrics. I tend to say Civil War? era print but as Tartan said - Japanese woven is a possibility as well. Kathy Hall (Andover) has a series of tiny lines and prints for Andover Jo Morton has a few similar as well as Moda - while these are not identical they might fill the bill so to say!!
