Just looking for opinions... do you think this fabric is too busy to be appealing?

The first one a closeup. Sorry I don't have a better "over-all" one.

Here are some others from the same collection, to give you a sense of "context".

And a few more. The group is a future one from Wilmington, aptly named "Harvest Market".

I think they would be great as a border. Maybe too busy for use in blocks, unless fussy cut portions of it for the center of a star or something....

Busy yes, but it all depends on how you use them. I could see the first one as a large center block for a wall hanging. It would also make fun and cute placemats.
