Greetings from Sacramento CA. I know that there is a fabric from the movie "Cars." If that doesn't work for you, you can find patterns in childrens' coloring books. Often, they translate to easy templates.

Welcome! Where in Oklahoma are you? I am in OKC and we have great shops here. This is a fun site. I am addicted to checking it at least 2 times a day!

I am in Ponca City and we don't have anything here. I do have an electrocardiologist in OKC that I see quarterly so maybe you can recommend a fabric shop. My husband has to drive me since I got my defib in. Quilting is about all I can do now so--- my escape has become my obsession. I am definately addicted. If I can figure out how to do this I will post pictures of some of my quilts.
