    I agree this is nice fabric for the $$. I am also a fan of Kona white or Kona Snow.

    I just want to thank the OP for the question and everyone else for their opinions. I too had been confused as to whites, and this has really helped me understand Kona White vs Kona Snow.

    I'm a Kona Snow fan myself. I like 1930's and 40's repro quilts and Kona Snow seems the perfect background for them.

    Kona is what I use. It is sold at Joanne's and I can use coupons to get it. I stick with kona because it is high quality, easy to get and I like to consistently use the same white.

    I buy Kona Snow at Joann's by the bolt, when I have a 50% off coupon.

    I almost always use a white on white. I purchase P&B as I like the feel and the variety of textures.

    I use either Moda or Kona - all of the others I have found are just too thin….
