I bought some lovely material for DD's Chriatmas present but it's out of stock - any suggestions for alternatives?

I am making a suit/dress carrier for her dance dresses

I bought some lovely material with 20/30's dancers on but it's oos

So what else can I use?

Background color of your material, try and match it with a plain color! You can have fun creating paterns out of both materials..

I don't have any material - it's out of stock

You bought it and it's oos? am I missing something?

try fabric rehab - lovely fabrics on there (google it)

I bought it (buy it now on ebay) & paid

They email to say OOS & refunded

I am fabric less

Ahhh! I see! thanks for clearing that up.
Can you put in a search for the fabric to see if anyone else is selling it?

Have you looked on eBay? Is this any good (only one metre available though) but you could mix with a plain or spotty fabric.

That is exactly the one I ordered but it is too small, but maybe as you say I could use another fabric

Put the pattern on the front and pick out one of the colours in it and match that in a fabric for the back.

I mean the same fabric not the same seller

But it is the front that takes the extra fabric - because of the 2 sides

The back takes much less

What about making the top section with the pattern and bottom section the with plain (fabric size allowing of course)? you get the pattern on both sides, just not full length.

Not sure - I think I'd rather get a whole piece even if it's a different pattern

The fabric rehab seems lovely but I wanted something 'dancing' ish

There is 3 metres of this but not sure if it's too old for your DD

I really like that but DD doesn't [silly child]

what about this one

Oh I like that one - I'll see if DD does tomorrow

Thanks

Not quite dancing but would something like this work?

Nope - she liked dizzyday's but it was a bit expensive
