No, Fleece isn't their new last name. I went to Hancock Fabrics to look for a pattern and discovered a Miss Piggy fleece print. Our girl has never looked better! While I was ecstatic and clinging to the bolt of pink-patterned fleece, my darling husband searched diligently for the Kermit the Frog fleece print until he found it, knowing that if Miss Piggy was there, Kermit had to be there, too.

I am not un-biased, but I am picky, and I'm not exaggerating when I say that the divine Miss Piggy has never looked more divine. Here's proof:

Kermit didn't look so bad himself. And here's the frog himself, looking rather dapper as well:

If you don't have a Hancock Fabrics, you can try other fabric stores. And all you need is about a yard and a third of fabric to make a nifty little no-sew throw/blanket. (That's what I'm getting for Christmas, but they did let me take pictures of it before they hid it away!) You can also make hats, scarfs and other fleece-type garments if you sew. Hmmmm...wishing I'd bought more fabric for a scarf and hat. Oh well, I can go back!

Enjoy! I think this is a positive sign that someone is noticing our frog and pig in their own right. I DID NOT see Elmo fabric, for example, and this is not Muppet Babies, nor did it seem designed for children. If you can, vote with your pocketbook!

Wow, that's so great that they look so great! I regretably have next to no artistic talent myself, but my mom knows a woman who just loves to make us hats and scarves each Christmas, so I wonder if it would be too foreward if we were to buy the fabric and ask her to use it?
On another note, we were just shopping for baby clothing a few weeks ago, and every time we do I say I wish there were some Muppet Baby items!

I am such a dolt for not thinking of this. Guys--you can order this fabric ONLINE! Go to hancockfabrics.com and order away--and it looks like they are currently honoring the 30% discount! (In the store, they said it runs through Sunday!)

So, you can order it if you can't find it--how cool is THAT!
