Given the beauty of the first three fabrics, what was the point of the fourth?

Anyone have any ideas, at all?

Yes, this is truly gray. With silver metallic.

I don't see a fourth

Oh there it is. I kinda like it. It is like watching "it's a Wonderful Life "

And... how about this one? At least the coloring is warmer, and not so stark. Gold metallic here.

They're from the 2010 holiday lineup.

I actually kind of like it-perhaps there is something wrong with me lol

The fifth one is the one that does not do it for me :-)

I dunno, But i like it, it gives great contrast..and there is silverish coloring in the other ones too..Personaly I think they all go very nice together.

Well... I always think that the manufacturers must be doing some sort of market research, to figure out what the customers want. But... sometimes I see a fabric and wonder what they were thinking.

They've run the first cardinal print for probably the better part of a decade. Maybe longer. It's hard to improve on a design that's already pretty near perfect!

Yes the first is an all time favorite I think

PS Will you be carrying the stark one?

Hoffman is also doing the cardinals in a half-size this year too. I think they're kinda cute. I could tell the sales rep was not keen on it, though. She said that she hadn't sold any of the larger gray version yet. Though I don't think she's had the samples for very long, so it's probably too early to tell.
