Grandson loves those cute little "hot wheel cars"- he must have a hundred of them. I want to make him a Hot Wheel quilt but can't find the themed fabric (Joann, Hancock, Walmart, online shops, etc.) so I decided to sketch a few of the cars and duplicate them on some "printer fabric". I wasn't too happy with the outcome. Thought about copying some pictures from the internet, but I think that's against the law (even if its for personal use)
Soooo..... if anyone has any suggestions, or if anyone has some hot wheels fabric laying around in their stash, I'd love to buy it.

I have this one still (M-13) it is hard to see the design in this picture - it would make a great background fabric
