Hi, I may have some Peter Rabbit fabric in Temple, TX, where we moved from. I still have a sewing room there in addition to the one I have in Jamaica Beach. I called my daughter to look in there, because I had a bolt of Peter Rabbit. I made a baby quilt a few years ago, and I am sure there was some left. She wasn't at home, but she will be and will check. I will send you a private msg.

She wants it in the pale/mint green colors. Most of what I have located is out of stock and no idea when it will be back in stock or it is over priced in my opinion. PLease help if you can. Thank you, hugs, Drue

I think I may have some that are about 3" by 4" squares. I'll have to dig around to find them.

[QUOTE=psquared52;5032830]I have 6 FQ's and 2 yd of Peter Rabbit fabrics. It is mostly pinks. One FQ has a colored picture of the bunny which includes a bit of green. Let me know if you'd like pictures. Selvage says "Peter Rabbit Frederick Warne and Co 2005".[/QUOTE

Would love to see the pics of what you have. Obviously the UK, Canada and Australia have this fabric redily available, more so than the US. Please post the pics, I may be very interested if I can incorporate it into the quilt with the light green.

Thank you so much for your response on this. This project has been a challenge, for sure.

You can post th epics here or you can PM me and post there.

Thankks again, Drue

I have checked the three Hobby Lobby's , In "our area" (two of them 70 plus miles away, the closest about 50 miles away) and they don't carry any of the fabric. Thanks anyway. If you can get it in Decatur or Weatherford , please let me know. They certainly don't have it on line either.

Thanks for your help, Drue

Quilting Treasures made a marvelous group of Beatrix Potter fabrics a few years back. It was called "Garden Tales", and they are (finally!) planning on reprinting it. A few of the fabrics are pictured here:

They will be deciding next month exactly which ones to reprint, and in which colorways. I want to be the first kid on the block to order them!!

I've been hounding them to bring these classics back for years. They've done other Beatrix Potter Characters (including Jemima Puddleduck) but the Peter Rabbit ones were definitely the classics, and just couldn't be improved on.

Anyone who is interested in Jemima can follow this link: http://www.favoritefabric.com/cgi/co...treasures.html)

Thanks, I have those links and if you pull up the fabrics, and especially the light greens, it will tell you, "No longer in stock"...or something to that affect. This is one of my main problems in locating these fabrics. It's very frustrating, to say the least. BUT, I do keep checking and have added my name to the contact list.
Thank you so much for your response and information.
