I really wanted to use a cream-ish TOT. None in my stash though. :( In effort to honour my Granny, who uses what she has and is very frugal, I'm not buying anything new for this project.
How about an old white sheet?
Actually, that's what the creamish fabric is in the picture, an old fitted sheet with the elastics cut off. :D

Thanks everyone! I called my mom and talked to her about it, she said definitely the fabrics in pic D. Those were my first choice, but then I was browsing through my stash and found the others that I thought would be nice too, and then I was confused. I should have stuck to my instincts! LOL
