That brings back a memory I have of my mom making my brothers (3 of them) boxer shorts picturing a girl taking a bubble bath. This was during WWII. They were a real hit with the boys on the ships (navy guys, all 3).

To me they are happy and make you smile fabrics.

At our fabric store, we categorize cotton and cotton blends in a couple categories. In addition to particular brand names (ex.a designer's name) and particular fabrics (such as a batik), we separate them by calicos (ex.quilters type print, small design, all over pattern) and novelty. We define novelty as 'things' - animals, toys, food, space, landscapes, buildings, money, vehicles,etc. We tell a customer that if you can name an item, then the fabric is probably in the novelty section. Hope this helps.

When I ordered fabric for a quilt store, novelty fabric was sports teams, Disney characters, animals, farm themes like tractors and barns. Panels and some childrens' themes often fell in this category.
