    Default Recognize this fabric?

    I could swear that I've seen this somewhere, but I can't find it in the usual places. It's a charm I received in a swap. I've searched for "mardi gras beads fabric", but had no luck with that. I think it would make a great backing for a bright quilt.

    Looks like Mardi Gras beads. But I have never seen it before.

    There is a web site you can forward the picture to and they can usually find it for you! Sorry, I can't remember the name of the site! I'm sure one of the other members here can! Hope you find it!

    I think I've got something similar to that, would have to go look, if I have it, I don't have much, are you short on it, or just curious?

    Remember the old popbeads some of us had as children? Looks something like that to me, but I haven't seen this fabric either.

    I think I've seen that fabric at Hobby Lobby, but I wouldn't swear to it.

    looks like a beaded curtain we hung in doorways a long time ago.

    Thanks, Wesing. I'll check another Hobby Lobby. I thought I'd seen it there.
