Judy, I did a google search, checked all my favorite online stores and finally found a bunch of fabric and sheet sets and fleece blankets with 'care bears' on eBay. Just do a simple search for "care bear" "fabric" looking in titles and descriptions.

Best of luck, Laura

I haven't seen any of what you are looking for in the fabric stores, but I wasn't looking closely either. This might be a suggestion for you though......I had a little friend that wanted Smerf jammies REALLY bad, no Smerf fabric was to be found anywhere. I finally picked up a set of Smerf sheets on sale for $7. She got Smerf jammies, a robe and a sun dress and sun hat and three Smerf toss pillows for her bed.....all for $7 of fabric! They do have those T-shirt knit sheets, I would think that would work for your stretch knit if it's a Care Bear print. Flannel sheets are starting to appear in the stores now too. Check the Juvenile area in the bedding departments.

I think sheets can be an overlooked resource for some sewing projects. My son's friend, who is HUGE, 6'7" and 345lbs needed a dress shirt and the Big & Tall shops were way out of his price range. I bought a white king sized sheet and got two shirts out of it for him, not a bad deal for $20 of fabric. I found an Egyptian cotton king sized sheet in an ecru color on a sale table for about $5 and made myself some night gowns out of it. I did all those Heirloom sewing techniques I'd been wanting to try on SOMETHING. I won't go into what I spent on laces but the price was great on fabric LOL. They turned out lovely and I've been wearing them for years.

Hope this helps, Val

Try looking at discontinued sheets and duvet covers, it's a good value way of buying up this type of fabric. I am speaking as someone who used to work in an old fashioned drapers shop, which also stocked bedding etc, quite often customers would buy the flat sheets to make curtains to go with their bedding. Don't overlook the obvious and email some of the bedding suppliers. A Google search should give you some links, you could ask if they have any remaining items, nicely of course you might be suprised.
