    Default Can't find decent baby girl fabrics

    I have to make another baby girl quilt and want to use a simple pattern for fat quarters - don't even care if I have to buy 1/2 yards at a time, but can't find anything decent and somewhat traditional in baby girl. suggestions?

    I'm unsure what you're looking for. Princess or fairy or . . ? I rely more on color choices in baby quilts than on prints. Sorry I'm no help.

    where are you located in case you you are near a place I might know.

    what do you mean by "somewhat traditional in baby girl"

    How many are you looking for. 1 or 15? since you say fat quarters or yardage. And colors.

    "Traditional bab girl" canmean different things to different peple.

    Flowers? Cupcakes? Ice cream cones? Toys on pink background? Scenery? Animals? Letters? Butterflies?

    There's a really cute pink dancing fairy flannel that I used for the last baby girl quilt I made. I got it at Walmart and I saw some still there a few days ago.
    This is a picture of the fabric and the two coordinating fabrics I used.
