My favorites are Winter Elegance, Snow Days Batiks and Christmas Spirit. Dear Mr. Claus is too. Ute for words, and the bell tree panel in Share the Jiy. For me, some of the lines are just too dark for a time of year when the daylight may be only 8 hours long.

I loved Blitzen and Holiday in Kashmir. Both had lots of fabrics that didn't scream Christmas to me as I really don't like most true Holiday fabrics. I could see using those two lines in year round quilt projects.

My favorites, by far, are Joy, Snow Days Batiks and Elegance.
Blitzen, Christmas Spirit and Holiday in Kashmir are pretty but not as much to my taste as the first three.
I would not be interested in any of the rest.
I hope this helps you. Thanks for sharing. I always look forward to your sneak previews.

Ooooh, thanks for showing the previews! There are some really gorgeous fabrics, as usual.
The ones I will buy:
DEAR MR. CLAUS (I wish there were more than one "focus" fabric, but this is adorable)
HOLIDAY IN KASHMIR (I am probably going to buy yards and yards and yards of this)
HOLIDAY MEDLEY (Just enough to add to my Kansas Troubles Christmas prints stash)
WINTER ELEGANCE (I will probably buy a lot of this)
CHRISTMAS SPIRIT (Nice, traditional look)
I would buy HOLLY JOLLY if there were more prints in the line - and I might anyway.
I haven't bought any batiks, but I think the SNOW DAYS BATIKS could induce me to start.
The ones I wouldn't buy:
BLITZEN
CHERRY CHRISTMAS
JOY
MERRY MEDLEY
SHARE THE JOY
Thanks again for showing these. Happy Fifth Day of Christmas.

I like the Holly Taylor line, its almost the exact of what was out a few years ago called NorthWoods....
someone said that Moda got the old designers back with them so the fabrics should be more of what they used to have....???

Thanks for posting, I enjoy the previews that you give us and appreciate the time you take.
I need to preference my opinions by saying that I don't do Christmas fabrics at all, I will even avoid prints that while not "Christmasy", have red and green together (I loathe those colors together).
So looking at each line I really only paid attention to the prints that were not necessarily seasonal. I liked some of the greys from the Blitzen line, and one print (in all colors) in the Share the Joy line (it's the print that looked kind of like the Storm at Sea block). Other than that, most of the other non-seasonal prints looked like stuff I see every day at any shop - nothing dynamic, nothing exciting. All kind of bleh.
Sorry couldn't be of more help.
