I''l be the descending opinion . . . HATE IT ! reinds me of a red and gold dress my mother made me wear in the 50's which had elastic on the arms - puff sleeve - and it pinched and nad I hated that dress !! Didn't matter to my mother ! I wore it anyway. Same thing with plaids ! Hate thosee too - had to wear wool pleated skirts and I was NOT skinny!! I felt like a house !
Funny how your childhood memories pop right up !

Most of the time I don't love them or hate them. Once in a while I will see one that just jumps at me but not so much that I have to buy it.

Reminds me of The Monkees and being in the eighth grade!

I hate paisley but I had to do a quilt for my LQS and it was called perfectly paisley. It was nice and the colours were soft but still not my thing.

Just love love them in any color and size. They are just beautiful. Don't know why I'm so crazy for them I just am.

What's not to like? Paisley prints are so much more interesting than dull drab prints. I've used paisley for everything from quilts to tote bags to home accessories. They blend well with so many different fabrics and can look very modern or very traditional.

I have this pattern on my bucket list. I love paisley, love pastels and love poppies! Beautiful combination :)
