About a year or so ago, I purchased a cotton fabric (can't remember from where) that had numerous types of cancers and the coordinating color ribbon on a white background. I still have a remnant, but it does not give a manufacturer, designer or item no. on the selvage edge. I was looking to purchase more. If anyone has seen this fabric and can tell me where I can purchase more would be great! julie

Not fabric but Accuquilt has a ribbon die so you can get the color you need and applique the ribbons on there. Good luck with your search.

I would go with the appropriate color. The likelihood of finding a cancer ribbon fabric produced in each cancer color is slim. Too expensive to produce by the fabric companies and then not to be purchased by shops. Esp the more obscure color of ribbons. Frankly, i am not sure all cancer patients want to draw attebtion to their situation via a ribbon. Maybe even appliques in the color would suffice if one wants a ribbon. My 2 cents.

Purple Cancer Ribbon Fabric
 
I am looking for some Purple Ribbon Cancer Fabric with the words Hope, Courage, Strength, Love, Health, Believe and Overcome. I know it was in production a few years ago, but hoping someone has some laying around they no longer want. Thanks! Theresa

We have the blue/teal in our shop, I don't know what colors go with what cancers though.


There is a list of colors on the American Cancer site.

After my diagnosis, I would really like to make some pillowcases and lap quilts but hate to be limited to just breast cancer and ovarian.

Any places I can look? I have googled but not finding much.

Thanks!

Not sure if you found something that will work for you, but I found that Accuquilt has a ribbon die that might work for you since you could cut it out in any color you want to. If you don't own an Accuquilt die cutter, maybe you can find a friend that would be interested in buying this ribbon die that you could borrow.
