Anyone seen this fabric? Please help!  

post #1 of 17
Thread Starter 
I have been looking for the perfect fabric to make a diaper bag and some other stuff and finally found it.... in an Ebay auction for something custom-made. http://tinyurl.com/yshonr

This fabric must be sold somewhere as two people on Ebay have it, one for stroller covers, the other for shopping cart covers.

Anyone seen this anywhere or know of a place where a lot of sewers chat? I would really appreciate any help findig this!

TIA!

Joannes Fabrics has some VERY similar designs on their stores. Lots of stripes and dots and whatnot, but its a heavier grade fabric - like what you'd cover a chair with. I can't findit online, but I've seen them in stores.

Thanks!

Ooh... I am not in the US so cannot go see. I also have the silly problem that after having seen this fabric, I would like to get just the same one. (Silly, I know.)

BTW, they call it 'bubble gum drops'.... just in case that helps.

Are you in Canada? I've seen something similar at Fabricville. I believe it was in the home decorating section.

What cute fabric! I did a Google search on the name (Bubble Gum Mini Bubble Fabric by Banana Fish) and look at the Crib Set! Isn't that adorable? I love those colors, and the stripes complement it so well too.


ETA: Daaaang that stuff's expensive!

It is SO expensive, though...:

It is cute! I love that crib set and we're not even crib users.

It is expensive, but a 54" wide yard goes a long way. Here is what I would do: plan out your diaper bag and whatever else you want and figure out exactly how much yardage you will need. Use solid fabrics where possible to cut down on cost (denim, or twill would be sturdy for a diaper bag), then buy what you need. Remember you'll carry your diaper bag every single day, you should L-O-V-E it!!!!!

What did you decide? Did you buy it? Please, let us live vicariously! I've carried utilitarian diaper bags forever and I've longed to have something *I* like, but just didn't make it a priority. Thankfully, diaper bags are almost behind us, but I'd do it differenlty if I had it to do over, kwim? :
