It reminds me of the 60's. Liked it then...not so thrilled with it now!

I love paisley fabrics. My favorite fabrics are all over packed prints and paisley
fills the bill.

I LOVE paisley fabrics! There are old fashioned ones and modern ones. I rarely see one I don't like!

never thought of them as masculine, most ones i've seen have some kind of floral with them OR, oddly enough, inside the paisley!

Now I'm a longarm quilter amd I often quilt freehand paisleys on client quilts. Funny huh?

that's pretty neat!

Please, please, post a photo. I love paisleys and want to see how you used them. Back in the 50's when we all wore printed cotton skirts, I had a green paisley skirt. I would love to have that fabric now.

I love paisley -- it seems to multiply whenever I go to my LQS :)
