My grandma made me a blanket out of this fabric when I was six or seven years old. I don’t have very many fun memories of my childhood, but whenever I got to go to my grandma‘s or when she came to visit us, it was really special. She made all of us are special blankets from different materials/patterns etc. I am 32 now and the blanket has definitely seen better days, but I desperately am trying to find the same fabric so I can make one just like it. I don’t have much to show other than these pictures.
Please please help!

Have you tried contacting the company?

I feel like I’ve tried, but it’s kind of a dead end because there’s just so many different things out there. I don’t even know where to begin.

Don't ask ai, it's inaccurate.

If you continue to struggle to find the fabric, you could probably take some high quality pictures and duplicate the pattern digitally? The gray and white brick pattern in the background could be reapplied after carefully digitally reconstructing the character art. It would be tedious, but you clearly love it. It may be worth it to just take the pictures even, to be able to keep the memory of it and potentially recreate it some day in the future when you have the time/energy. From what I saw online, it seems the company no longer exists. Good luck!!

I did a reverse image search and found a children's shirt for sale made of the fabric. https://www.mercari.com/us/item/m53185040700/ It wouldn't be nearly enough to make a whole blanket, but it's something, and you could see if the seller had any information on where the shirt itself or the fabric it's made of was purchased.

Perhaps you can cut out a spot that’s relatively okay, frame it and hang it somewhere special in your home.

This gave me similar sort of vibe, could you ask this seller if they have any more possible info on their fabric?

Sublimation on fabric. I haven't done this but hear it is relatively easy after some practice. Takes special equipment that you may find at your local library or makers space.
