Help finding fabric

I found the perfect fabric at Hancock's but found only one piece in their remnant section. I am wondering if anyone can tell me how to identify this fabric so I can find more. Thanks!

    Is there any printing in the selvedge edge that would give you a clue as to manufacturer?

    FWIW, I ran through all of the blue and green geometrics on the Joann's website and didn't find it.

    Dorothy, Did you ask while you were at Hancock's if they could tell you who made it and what it is called? Since they carried it, I would hope they could help you.

    I've never been to a Hancock Fabric, as we don't have them around here, but I'd try them. Good luck!

    We asked at Hancock's and they were not helpful. Color in my IPad picture is not true, background color is a grayblue and design is embroidered. Was desperately hoping someone could identify it as it is perfect with everything in my dining room.

    could it be this? I haven't found that color yet, just these:

    olyschick, the configuration looks similar but this is drapery fabric I am sure. At least we hung the length we bought on drapery rings and it hung like drapery. Maybe someone can find it out of all the talented people here. Thank you for looking.

    Darn those people at Hancock! I've been looking off and on using the image, and don't find anything. I also looked under 'Lattice embroidered fabric' and diamond embroidered fabric', and still find nothing in that exact look.

    Try attaching your photo to an email and sending it to these folks in MA. I think you need to get it out to people who work with lots of fabrics every day, as they may recognize it in a flash.

    If there are large fabric stores near you, see if you can send the pic to them also.

    I saw this fabric this morning looking for something else. This might give you another clue for your search. Good luck!

    bbstx, this is the closest we have seen but it doesn't come in the right color. The piece we have could have been irregular as it has loose threads coming from the design. Hancock's buy remnants in large boxes so who knows what they may have in a shipment. We looked at their sample swatches and didn't find the same thing offered there. I was just hoping someone here would recognize it or be able to find it. You all are the best!

    Have you ordered a sample of the Clarissa Seaglass and/or Pewter? Many times the internet photo is way off the actual color. To me it looks too similar to ignore.

    Dorothy,
    bbstx has the right fabric just wrong colorway. I have seen it from several vendors (the middlemen, so to speak), in different colors. If you take the picture to a shop in your area that sells fabric I'll bet they will find it. Not all companies carry the same colors, but it's not an uncommon fabric.

    Sally thanks for the heads up. I tried to email you but just keep being taken to log in, which I have done at least two times.

    Thank all of you who responded to my plea for help in finding a fabric, especially bbstx who found it. Would never have succeeded on my own. DD found several sources and now have to see if I can find the right color wave.
    You are wonderful .
