I think I'd use a soft yellow with the repros I have if I were going to use a solid. My pieces range from off-white floral prints to reds. Soft yellow looks the best to me, but I didn't love it. That's why I'm skipping sashing and doing an icecream cone border.

Hi, I recently finished an Arkansas Crossroads in thirties repro fabrics and used Kona Snow. It has a nice soft white look and not as harsh as white does. Many of my quilting friends like the Kona Snow versus Muslin. Good luck with your project.
