Help Black Dobby Fabric

This may be a long shot but does anyone have a remnent piece of the black dobby we received in the SHJ box Oct 2024. I have cut out the Philomena and realised I did not cut the back bodice on the fold. I am willing to pay for fabric and postage.

Val, I don't know the pattern or how it pieces together, but I spotted this in the Backstitch sale:

backstitch.co.uk/cotton-dobby-black-dressmaing-fabric-end

I imagine it's a different batch, but might be worth trying

This looks the same to me, most likely from the same supplier

I bought some on pound fabrics back in November. I've used it now but they might still have some. At the time it was 5.50 a metre.
