They have a color called "Raven", and it is probably the most boring selection of all, because it's... just black... and not much variation in shade at all.
And so I'm asking, do you have any black "solid" batik in your stash?
I do have some black batiks in my stash and there is a new one coming out called Nebula that has highlights that look to be nice. I will never make another quilt with black as the sashing but I do like to use it as a popper against some colors. I like to use a dark navy blue when "dark" is needed. :oops: :roll:
