Are there any of Disney's "Pocahontas" who seems to have been modeled on girls of several races? I'm going to look. How about the "American Girl" dolls? This fabric on ebay is disney but she's a lovely girl.

This site has a fairy fabric with black fairies/pink wings.

I couldn't get the picture but this ebay site has a black barbie pillow fabric. Click on: (download) at the bottom of the post to go there.

I f the colors are as shown on my computer, that print should be fine. Of course, Disney prints are usually pretty expensive.

aaaaaaghhhhh A couple of months ago I finally gave up beautiful little fairies who were blond, brown haired, brown skin, and black hair (Asian) and Black....and made it into two baby (or doll) quilts (about 24x30") and gave them to St. Vincents to give away.

If I wasn't so electronically challenged I'd send you a picture of it and maybe someone would know where to get it. I bought it years ago and didn't use it before my mixed blood grandchildren got too old.

Someone out there should know of some material! Come on, gals (and guys) ... help out!

Also, check this site out. It appears to be a site for African American quilters. It includes a blog, so you might be able to post a question and get a response from someone.
