    Anyone know of an online store that has a large selection of Polka dot fabrics? I'm going to be starting a quilt next month and it will be made of entirely polka dots. Thanks in advance!

    Polka dots seem to be really popular right now. Do you have a perfect quilt in mind for those little spots?

    What a wonderful quilt pattern!! Your request for polka dot fabric brought to mind something Alex Anderson once said that polka dots are hard to find and, when found, buy 2 - 3 yards!

    Polka dot fabric seems to be allusive. I have looked for a bright red/black dots to make a ladybug quilt. And have looked for 4 years to no avail. I have checked LQS in this area. Nothing.
    Good luck, I hope you find what you need to make your quilt.

    I don't have much, but I do have some white with blue polka dots if you would like it. I am not going to use it so if you want it PM me with your address and I'll send it on out to you.

    Here are a few that I found. You may also want to search under "dots" instead of polka dots :wink: it seems some are listed that way also :D:D:D
