Can someone recommend a good gray solid fabric for modern quilts?

I also use Kona ash. Once I ran out and got a Bella gray. The Kona ash has a softer gray color than the Bella.

I absolutely love the Kona Cotton steel color it's my favorite not to light but not so dark you think your looking at a washed out black.

I dislike the heaviness of Kona cottons, so I tried Connecting Threads gray. Didn't like it either! Still looking.

check out the American made brand. I have used them and like the look and feel. I think there are 2 grays in the collection, it is nice to be able to use American made fabrics again.

Thanks, everyone! Lots of great information for me. Haven't made a final decision yet, but think I will try out the Kona Ash and get samples of some of the others. Fabric.com seems to have reasonable prices.
