Wow this is a hard one to answer. I like the solids. I think some of the busys are too close together washing out the design, example the 2nd row from the bottom 6th one in from left along with 3rd row from the bottom 6th and 7th block in from the left meeting with the 4th row from the bottom 7 th block in from left cause that whole section of blocks to blend in too much loosing the design (my opinion). I like the fabric. It is not too bright or busy. I just think the placement needs a little bit more focus.
