Need Help Finding A Fabric
 
I am planning a quilt for a Veteran that reflects his life. Do you know where I can purchase fabric that depicts a dark blue 1965 Plymouth Barracks?

That's a Plymouth Barracuda, not Barracks.

Are you wanting a picture of the military housing or are wanting a picture of a 1965 Plymouth Barracuda car?

I want the car.

There are some fabrics available with muscle cars but probably not specifically a barracuda. If you cannot find fabric that has that particular car you could print a picture of one but the I find the colors of photos are not always vivid. Your other option if you don't mind the difference in fabric from the rest of your quilt would be a T shirt https://www.amazon.com/1964-Plymouth.../dp/B01KDC6Y5Y

(You can google for more t shirt options)

Sorry, none are strictly barracuda....

My husband owned that same model car when we were in college, and I can tell you that for at least the past 10 years, there has never been such a fabric made that I could find, and I have searched everywhere. Good luck.

You have All been very helpful, thank you. I'm going to pass on the 'Cuda and focus on other interests the veteran has. Thanks again.

A not-so-cheap option might be to get a good quality picture of a Plymouth Barracuda you like and have it copied onto fabric, i.e. Spoonflower or similar.

I was also going to suggest Spoonflower.
