I love the traditional designs, I just don't want to make them. Its been done and done again but to do a traditional design in a new fabric line and then call it a NEW design is ridiculous.

Well, it's quite simple really. Tastes are different and a lot of people do like the traditional designs. Just because you don't like to look at them or to make them, does not automatically make them boring. Frankly a sentence like "but the big names do it again and again and people eat it up. I just don't get it" seems dangerously close to being arrogant.
