Oh, prints suitable for men's quilts would be nice too!

I have noticed that many of the magazines are showing bright pink, orange, and green prints. (Not my thing, but seems to be the current trend.)

If you have other LQSs around you, find a niche that they haven't filled and focus on that. (Such as 30s prints.) That way, you won't be competing with other stores as much. One of my LQS has a HUGE selection of batiks. The other focuses on Civil War prints.

I like them all :oops: Just depends what I am making .

Tone on tone in colors

I tend to stay away from strips since you have to cut them just so or they don't look right

I agree with sharon b, tone on tone in lots of colors, not too many stripes, and a variety of prints of all sizes. One size does not fit all! Maybe some pre-cuts like jellyrolls, etc.

A good variety of tonal/blender fabrics to go with all the 'fun stuff' would be a real asset.

Complete collections and the pattern to use them in!( Seems I can always find some, but not all, and I won't start something like a quilt unless I can buy everything at once( no stash at my house, no room!)

Wide backings! I like 60" or wider, I want backing for a CA King. I get muslin from Joann's or buy off line as the LQS carry very few colors and rarely ever a print.
