You can not find any nurse type fabrics. The last one printed was Loralie a couple years ago (as I wrote this I wanted to check Loralie spelling and googled it. They have another nurse/doctor panel out!) So some competition would be good!!

I agree with MOM-6 - more GUY FABRIC - from geometric guy colors (nothing with flowers) to more specific themed fabrics (job trades/hobbies/interests).

I tried to make something quickly for a man and had such a time finding 'manly' fabric - I didn't make it.

I would like to see more tone on tone fabrics especially in the darker colours, particularly black and dark brown and navy and purple. So often blacks read as gray or have greenish or bluish tinges. Finding backgrounds often takes me forever and many times just don't seem to be available. I know that these must be the more "boring" fabrics to design but quilters need them. Often tone on tones are just tiny florals and I would like to see other designs incorporated into them perhaps geometrics, tiny stripes, butterflies or even sewing objects. Right now, I just can't find the black that I need.
