    Help!!!!!

    My 2 yr old grandson is crazy about Elmo and I'm trying to find fabric that doesn't have a pink or lavender background. I found some that has "baby" Elmo that has a bright, bright yellow background. I don't want bably Elmo and the yellow won't go with his room. The other fabrics out there are with all the Sesame Street characters, which puts poor little Elmo in the background. Does anyone know an online store that sells Elmo fabric?

    Try ebay? They seem to have a lot of it. It is really hard to find just Elmo, I was looking a couple of years ago for this too.

    Have you thought about applique? You could get pictures from a coloring book.

    If I was making a quilt, I might consider it, but I'm just going to make him some pillow cases.

    I made an Elmo quilt once and I used embroidered squares I did on my embroidery machine. Do you have one?

    No embroidery machine for me but I might give the coloring book idea a try. How about you, Elizabeth?
