Which solid white fabric is the best?
I want to do the Falling Charms quilt that was recently posted By Jenny Doan on you-tube
and need to get a white jelly roll. Whose is the best? Moda has Bella and R Kaufman has
Kona. Is one better or is there another that would be even better? I plan to get the Storytime
layer cake so the colors are pretty bright that would be paired with the white. I'm worried about
the seams showing thru the fabric (if I don't get everything pressed to the dark, etc).

You know, I don't remember anymore! I selected Snow over White once and just never reconsidered. I'm sorry I'm not more help.

In Kona, "snow" is actually a softer white than "white". I had purchased "white" before and found it really glaring next to my bright fabrics. Now I always purchase "snow" -- just gives the softer look that I want in quilts.
It's like the difference in light bulbs that was sold as "soft white". Once I found the soft white bulbs, I never bought the regular white bulbs again. (Of course, can't buy any of them anymore! How times change....)
