I have been searching for fabric with roller skates on it for months. My niece is really into roller derby and I made her a quilt about her favorite team. I ended up settling for something else since I needed to get it done before Christmas. Now, her roller derby coach has asked me to make her one, so I'm still hoping to find roller skating fabric. Has anyone seen any? The cincher is that it can't be pink at all. Their rivals main color is pink. The team colors are bright green, black and red and they are called the Cherry Bombs. I'm using cherry fabrics and a bright green tone on tone fabric. The inner boarder is zebra print (their numbers are zebra print) and I want something with roller skates for the outer border. I've looked at all the local fabric stores and most of the online stores that come up in a typical google search. I've even searched ebay.

Re: roller skate fabric
no, they wear the regular skates with the toe stoppers, the kind I had when I was a kid in the 70's and 80's. However, this is the closest I've ever gotten to finding roller skating fabric. I'm going to a quilt store later this week though, so I'm going to see what they may have gotten in since I was last there in November. I also discovered a few new fabric stores in my area t hat I want to check out.

Re: roller skate fabric
Hi - If you don't have any success at your fabric stores, take a look at Sports Authority Fabrics by General Fabrics Co. at www.bearpawquilting.com. Type "skate" in the search area. I have ordered fabric from them when I needed a special theme fabric and was happy with their service. They carry a huge selection of theme fabrics and their prices are very reasonable.

Re: roller skate fabric
did you ever find the fabric for roller skates? I found some on spoonflower.com. they have 3 or four different ones. My daughter is roller derby jammer and I am making some "floor mats" and skate pillows for their team to sell. They are really excited to have derby items that are new to exhibit.
