Ok, your challenge, should you choose to accept, is to find me the above fabric, preferably in cotton and small dots, not big ones.  Is that pernickety enough for a challenge?

I have some lovely floral fabric (black background, kind of ditzy floral print in yellow and red, but the yellow is the more dominant colour, to me) which will not be quite enough for a top so I need to supplement it with another fabric and thought it might look nice with a black with yellow polka dots.  But I can't find any.  Has anyone seen any one their travels?

Thanks,  Missie

Thanks Iminei, I did see that one, but it is gold and I want yellow, a lovely bright sunshiney yellow.  I might have to go with Vege's option   -<

How about white dots on black and over dye with yellow - the black should remain black.
