Jerrie,
I liked the disappearing 9, too. I did a demo for my mom who absolutely LOVES 9 patches...she's a big fan now, too. I think that would be so pretty in a black/white combo! I thought I might have some in my stash to send you, but everything I have has an additional color in it. I'm on the lookout for red/whites but will let you know if I some good prices on blk/wht combos.
