Fabric Shopping...

I have the perfect fabric in my mind... but finding it is proving impossible! We need to get this step completed so we can register for all of the other nursery items to match. The shower is in just a few weeks, and so the clock is ticking on this project.

I have something like this in mind:

I can't find anything like it. I can find polka dots, I can find circles and squares, I can find similar colors in different shapes... but I can't find anything like it.

Time is running out, and we may have to change our plans. I'm a little disappointed.

Yup. We had the same problem. We wanted cute little turtles. Couldn't find anything. So we went with something else. Three months after he was born, yeah, turtle stuff everywhere. We feel your pain.

I'll give you a couple links. Mainstream fabric is all the same based on trends. Here are some better sites.

Hope this helps! Once you start looking on etsy.... I could be there for hours. Look out soon. I've registered and will list my own handmade goods.

Terra, great links. We ended up buying something that we liked, but nothing like our original idea. Thank you!
