I have to agree (once again)with DogHouseMom the suggestion to actually touch and feel the fabric. Since you are new to quilting, a written description on a website probably doesn't mean a hill of beans to you. Find a clerk in a fabric store and tell them what you want. Let them lead you to where you need to be. If that is not right, try to describe it more. Many times I have found what I was looking for while I was walking to where I thought I wanted to go. Us quilters are odd ducks --> I mean that only in the most informed way. :-) Please, no flailing tonight. I can't take anymore.
