    Default Searching for Lego Fabric

    My DGS, who is about to turn 5, is Lego crazy and has asked Yia-yia (me) for a Lego quilt for Christmas. I said I would try. I have looked for fabric everywhere I could think of and searched previous threads on QB, too, but they are many months to years old. I am having little to no luck, so I thought I'd throw it back to our knowledgeable and resourceful members, again. I would hate to disappoint him. I found some on Spoonflower, but apparently it is no longer available. Any help would be appreciated! :-)

    There are some previous threads on this. Try searching the board. I think one involved someone stamping Lego nd circles on some solid fabric.YY

    You could also take some photos of his legos and print them for focus fabric, and use brightly colored solids in Lego colors (red, yellow, blue, green).

    It appears to have never been sold in America. I did this search and came up with some original ideas that might help you.

    There was this auction in Japan. Half a yard sold twice for $12.35.

    One of the color pictures had fabrics with white circle looking like the top of legos.

    I don't think I've seen leggo fabric, but here is a leggo quilt that I have in my favorites to do someday.

    Thanks to all of you for your suggestions. I think I'm going to make the one from Moda Bakeshop. It's easy and fast, and I can easily make it bigger. I'll post pics when I get it made. Too bad the printed fabric is not available in the US.

    Found something on etsy that might work. Looks Lego-ish to me.

    Another etsy shop with more muted Lego-inspired designs:

    Best wishes with the quilt!
