I am pregnant and just found out that I am having a girl. I want to do the nursery in Disney little mermaid and I want to make crib bumpers/curtains with a disney mermaid print fabric. I have not been able to find anything at Joanns or Wal-mart. Does anyone know where I can find this kind of fabric? I tried e-bay too but saw nothing I liked. I want something where the design is not too large since I will be making crib bedding. Thanks.

I think what I decided to do is embroider little mermaid on the crib bumpers. I don't think they make disney ariel fabric at this time. I am a disney freak so I want disney! I found a blue fabric that looks like waves at Joanns so I think I will buy it and embroider different ariel designs across it. I already have the embroidery designs! It will be more time consuming but I have 4 months to work on it.

yeah I saw that too but I don't like the fabric that they have for sell there. I also need 3 1/2 yards of it. I like the fabric that the last dress is made in but I haven't been able to find it for sell as just fabric. Thanks.

Thanks but I already bought some blue fabric that looks like waves and I am going to embroider little mermaid designs on it. I haven't had time to start it yet though cause I just got back from vacation but I think it will look good. I am also going to embroider her name (when we decide on one) on the headboard portion.
