Searching for ...

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 JoAnn'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 ^;;^
