    Haave you ever thought of using a "diaper" print for your backgrounds. It makes people want to come up close to see your fabric choice. A lot of my friend depend on the Kona solids, we use a lot of "snow" or "bone". If you cannot find it locally try an online source.

    AuntJudy14,

    What is a "diaper" print? Sounds interesting.
