I am making a quilt for a charity raffle with all the ribbons with all the colors of cancer....21 of them. Most people are only familiar with the breast cancer pink one. I am looking for fabric to use for backing that has all the ribbon colors. Does it even exist? All i can find are pink and white ribbons. Can anyone help me? Thanks!

I would search for cancer ribbon fabric. Alternately, you could have Spoonflower print fabric for you if you can create a picture of the ribbons.

if you can't find ribbons, have you considered strips or a white background with tiny dots of different colors?

Make a pieced backing with paper pieced ribbon blocks in each of the colors. I can't imagine that there's a ready-to-buy fabric with all the ribbon colors on it.

I just finished a cancer ribbon quilt with 24 of the 26 cancer ribbon colors, 2 colors are repeated so I only made 24 blocks. If you look for my cancer ribbon quilt you can see the blocks. I used the cancer ribbon heart block from Carol Doak, a free block pattern- I made mine 7 1/2" blocks

All cancers is lavender. Maybe that could be the color of the ribbon on the back.

The fabric from Spoonflower was exactly what i was looking for. Thank you so much. I have attached a photo of four of the front blocks that i have paper pieced. Need to make 21 total!
