I have always liked Kaufman Kona - I bought a bolt of “snow” many years ago from Mary Jo’s (closed forever now) in Gastonia, NC. I use it specifically for redwork but it’s great for appliqué, too. Recently, I got a BOM and it needed lots of fabric for the appliqued squares. The designer recommend Mods Bella (I’ve bought charm squares and fat quarters in the past) so I bought 10 yards from Hancocks of Paducah. They will give you a great discount In 5 or 10 (or more) running yards - so it came out to a little under $6/yard which is great for Moda. Bella is beautiful to the touch and I am very impressed, as I always am with anything from Moda. Final words - these are my two go-to fabrics for solids and Moda for all the rest of their fabric lines (Kona is only in solids.)

Sure hope this helps.
