    Default Looking for cream background fabric

    Ok, so I’m neck deep into a Judy Niemeyer pattern called Vintage Rose. It’s got 8 big petals. I don’t have any fabric for the background. The one I picked out just fades into nothing. I have looked at cream colored batiks at all my favorite websites. Hancock’s of Paducah, Fabric.com. Even Batiksplus.com. I don’t see anything that would have a bit of pale yellow with some lighter green leaves. I’m about ready to drive 3 1/2 hours to Shipshewana to see what the quilt stores there have. Any ideas???

    Have you tried here Lunn Studios? They are amazing to work with and would be happy to help if you send a email to them, very wonderful to work with.

    This does not have leaves, but maybe the colors are right? It’s so frustrating to know exactly what you want, but can’t locate it!
