No it makes total sense! I will have to look around and see what I can find, maybe I can find a nice pattern that have a light orange with lots of white that will read as white when farther away ….. I was leaning towards one shade of WOW for the whites, and I agree, I think different shades of white may end up detracting from the already complicated pattern. Now that I know other people agree, I feel better about doing that!! :)

Nice idea, to find graduating fabrics that go from totally white through several prints to orange. Best of luck with your search Rachel.
