Hi all

I am looking for off white fabric to go with 30`s prints and Moda has Snow, Feather,Breeze, Ivory and Fig tree cream.........and all of them look white !? Which one is off white?

Would be grateful for help

Thank you very much. I will order Ivory then.
I did not even consider muslin. I ordered some half yards to fill the flat rate envelope and to get to know that fabric, but I did not get a real good one so far. I use it to practise FMQ.
What muslim do you use?

The JoAnn's here has Kona Muslin that is very nice! I love it. But to go with 30's prints I prefer Kona Snow. It is a white but not a blaring white white. It is great to work with.

Thanks a lot.
At Joannes I saw one that said 200 count. What does that exactly mean and is it a good number? I know its something with threads from this board, but most muslins do not come with this number.
