I am so glad to read about this discussion because I feel the same way - that while they may represent the fabrics of the times, they are very difficult to work into a quilt. I know that they are being sold as quilting fabrics - and Andover has a 6-print contract with the BBC - which means that there will be 6 more complete collection (probably about 3 years worth), so I'm hoping that feedback from the shop owners and their quilting customers will help them see that we need fabrics that are also tailored to the industry. I think that what you all have posted is VERY representative of quilters everywhere.
