Benartex makes a wonderful preprinted fabric. It was developed for the backing of the quilt (quilt from the back) But it is great to practice on. It is white and off white and comes 108" wide and the design lines wash out when finished. It is a meandering feather design.
Many thanks for this information. In all the years I have been quilting I have never encountered this fabric and would have liked to in the beginning stages to save my drawing all the designs. It is certainly good to pass on to others.
