Did you ask the shop if they could order some yardage for you? Not many shops want to give out their sources but most shops will order extra, Good luck!!

Thank you everyone for all your suggestions. I am off into hospital for a few days, so I will check all these suggestions out when I get back. I am still waiting for the owner of the shop to get back to me and I am keeping my fingers crossed. See you all on the other side of the surgery!

I agree that the top ones look Oriental and with the post From Fieryphoenix, I think you may find these are also Japanese import fabric. Since you are going into the hospital, I'll do some poking around on the internet and see what I can come up with.

Welcome to the Board; I hope you hospital time goes quickly and with positive results for you.

Also try Heartsong Quilts (http://heartsongquilts.com/). They also carry Australian Aboriginal fabrics, but I agree that these might be Japanese. Another shop to try might be Fabric Worm (www.fabricworm.com).

Good luck!

Those top two are Japanese fabrics. I saw them for sale in Tokyo's fabric town. I have the top two with just the arrow motif. Many U.S. Fabrics are printed in Japan and they sell those there also.
