Default What is the very best solid white cotton?

I have been collecting polka dots for a while now, to make various star blocks with white background and sashing in a quilt for myself. For the last quilt I bought Kona solid white, $9.95/yard), and while it had a nice finish it ravelled (unravelled?) badly. I have to admit I did not wash it before using it. (I just hate how fabrics lose their sleek finish and starching doesn't seem to take it's place for me.)

Is there a really outstanding solid white that someone knows about and can recommend to me?

Thanks a lot for helping me -- this site is definitely my Go-To for all quilt-related matters.
