The Perfect Stripe

I saw this quilt at a shop in Sandy on the shop hop and now I can't stop thinking about it. I have to make one.

Isn't it great?!

There's an up close shot so you can see that it contains The Perfect Stripe.

Now I'm on a mission to find this stripe. It just now occurred to me to call the shop and ask.

------------
Called the shop, it's a class taught by a lady not employed by the shop and they don't know what the fabric is. Thankyouverymuch.

Cranky old lady.

So, any ideas about this stripe? Know of something similar? Wouldn't it be a great scrap buster? Wouldn't it be cute for the Fourth with a red stripe and red white and blue fabric?

    It reminds me of Robert Kaufman's Oxford Yarn Dyes. In fact, it really looks just like it. Good luck!
