Default Looking for fabric

This board is amazing and I am hoping that someone can lead me to the right place to find Beatrix Potter/Peter Rabbit fabric for making a crib quilt for a friend. She wants it in the pale/mint green colors. Most of what I have located is out of stock and no idea when it will be back in stock or it is over priced in my opinion. PLease help if you can. Thank you, hugs, Drue

I would try a Google search and buy online. I needed some Wilmington fabric to finish 4 identical Christmas throws I designed. No one had what I needed left in the LQS. But I found an online shop that had it. I was worried when I ordered because it needed to match but it was just what I needed.

Try the fabric search engines. According to the manufacturer, most of the large Peter Rabbit panels are not being reprinted in case that is what you're looking for, but there are smaller 'book' panels available.

Try Fabric.com or the bug fabric (you'll have to google, can't remember the name of the shop). Good luck!

This is a baby quilt I made using the 4 1/2" squares and various gingham fabrics......I may have a set of squares left if you would like them!
