JoAnn's. I wanted something neutral that read like newsprint. This was the closest I found... vintage advertisements. I do love it.

I would never have thought of doing that pattern with a neutral print. How pretty!! What is the neutral called, the line of fabric?

So far it's about 64" wide. Don't know the final length yet, probably 84-90"? Haven't decided if I will add borders... probably not.

It's just a JoAnn's fabric, but there are a lot of prints like this coming out now: Pretty scripts, advertising, newsprint, etc. Even sheetmusic-looking prints would be cool. You can do so much with it!

Thanks so much for all the positive comments! I'm going to sew some more of it together today.
