I am looking for Elmo Fabric that is cotton or cotton/poly blend. Do not want fleece or flannel, but that seems to be all that is out right now.
I have been sitting for two straight days going from web site to web site looking for him.

HELP!!!!!!!!!

I just recently purchased some Elmo sheeting fabric (Elmo Sports) from this website. I'm hoping it's a good quality cotton. The pattern on it is adorable-I'll let you know how the fabric quality is once it arrives!

Here's an update: I ordered the fabric last Thursday evening, March 23rd. It came YESTERDAY afternoon---I can't believe how fast it arrived. They ship it from their offices in Illinois (USA), and I live in NY state. I didn't request any special express shipping either. The fabric is adorable, and my grandson was already hugging it even before I could get it unfolded...guess it's time Grandma got a pattern or some instructions to make a crib sheet for him--and Pronto!! :bolt:

Glad I saw this thread--been looking for Elmo myself. My almost 2 yr old is in love with "melmo."
It's good to hear the fabric was what you wanted!!

I was finally able to find the time to make my GS his "Momo" crib sheet. It was much easier than I thought it would be...and he was so thrilled with it that he wanted to play in his crib right away! I have just enough of the fabric left to make him some matching rod pocket curtains for his little bedroom window. When they're done and put up, I'll try to take a few pics and post them for ya! :bg:
