    Default White fabric with mini black print

    Help! I am making a quilt for my son (Radio Way by Jaybird Quilts) and it is mostly black prints. He wants the sashing around the blocks to be a white fabric with a mini black print (but not polka dots). I am having a hard time finding it. I found some civil war fabric that was kind of ivory with a mini black print--which was perfect if it would've been white fabric instead of ivory. I have a feeling I will have to look for it on the internet but I don't even know where to start. Anyone know of some particular companies that might have such fabric?

    thousandsofbolts.com has quite a few. Probably some other vendors do, too. Here are a couple I found scrolling through the "black" section, might be more in the "white/ivory" section. If you click on the "close up image" button, you get a 2" x 2" square so you can see the scale. Oh, a few of these might be ivory rather than white, check before buying!

    fabric.com has a fairly good selection of black on whites/black on whites. guess i'm lucky- my lqs has a whole shelf of black & white fabrics, about even b on w & w on b...i bet there are 30 bolts of them to choose from. but i have seen them at a number on-line shops.
