    Default Looking for butcher fabric
    I am hoping someone here on the board might know where I can find butcher fabric, cleavers, etc., for friends of mine that have just opened a butcher shop, I would like to make them some aprons. I have checked quiltshops.com with no luck, any help finding it would be appreciated.

    I googled and didn't find anything. Perhaps you could make some red and white checked aprons and applique on cows, pigs, chickens etc?

    With spoonflower, you could create your own fabric and put whatever you want on it

    There's a fabric out there with hot dogs on a grill. That would be fun for a butcher.
