Many years ago, I purchased several baseball style caps that had a front panel of cross stitch material. Does anyone have one (or more) these (unstitched) they would like to sell or know of a supplier for such items. I've searched the internet till my fingers are sore, but can't find them anywhere.

I may have one or two around that I won't be using, but I bought them at Jo= Ann's Fabrics. Our local store is a smaller one and they had them in stock.= Tomorrow I'll check to see if I still have them. I think at least one is a= dark blue cap with an off white Aida panel in front.

Rita, I'm sorry - I just looked and can't find the cap(s) anywhere. I have no idea what happened to them. I know I didn't use them. And now I don't see them on JoAnn's website either!

Rita - have you tried Herrschners (or how ever it it spelled?)
Anne:
Thanks for looking. At least now I know I'm not the only one who remembers them, but can't find them. When my son first asked me to make him some new cross stitched caps, I went on line and after several hours, did find one site that had them. I saved the site, told my son the supplier now wanted $10.99 each for the caps, and he said fine - order two or three. When I went back online, the caps were no longer shown as being available. I emailed Customer Service and was told they haven't had the caps available for several years, just hadn't gotten around to removing them from their website.

I tried Herrshners, Nordic Needle, Marilyn's Stoney Creek, Mary Jane's, and ton's of other online cross stitch and/or craft retailers. No luck. Wrote to customers service at each and only one or two even remember the caps. The owner of my LNS checked all of her catalogs. No luck.
Guess I will have to cross stitch on blank aida fabric, then appliqué the finished designs to blank caps.
Thanks much to all who looked for me.

You could also use waste canvas to get your design stitched directly on the cap fabric. Of course, if there's seams, etc. the run through your design, that might pose a problem but it is an option to think about :-). CiaoMeow >^;;^<

Having tried so sew (as in repair) a ball cap, save your fingers and don't
