Yes, by all means, it's perfectly ok. In fact, I think 'other fabrics' are necessary with his fabrics, in order to break up the 'busy-ness' of his prints. Have fun!

The "Quilt Police" might protest, but they have no jurisdiction anywhere. I say, go for it!!

ESPECIALLY KF fabrics. All that riot of pattern and color just overwhelms vision.
