I think the trick is to identiy what YOUR customers would like. Think of what colors schemes they tend to buy, are they more traditional or compemporary? Do you sell a lot of batiks? If so, your customers would likely love the xmas batiks. Do you sell a lot of floral traditional fabrics, if so then natures gift and elegance would go over well. Do you sell a lot of contemporary fabrics? If so then ready set snow would go over well. |

The first one is my least favorite. I would/will buy the others with no problem.
|
I like Ready, Set, Snow; Flurry; and Winter Wonderland the best. Some of the fabrics in those lines would also work for non-Christmas projects, which definitely appeals to me.
|
Actually I bet if we all posted pics of our wrapping paper stashes she could figure it out from there.
|
I love the Ready Set Snow and Flurry....

I love them all!!!!!!!!!!!!
|
Ready, Set, Snow
Flurry Belive Batiks |
I would buy the Believe Batiks and possibly the Natures Gift line. I don't really care for the look of the other collections so much.
|
I love the last three, too. Wish I had some of those to sew with now because I'm still working on Christmas!
|
My choices are :
Ready, Set, Snow Elegance Believe Batiks Nature's Gift |

I'm sure they wouldn't mind receiving advice either. Thank you all! Kathi in PA |
Ready, set, snow. Natures gift, and Elegamce
|
Flurry, Believe & Ready Set Snow
I really like the fresh look of Flurry, & Believe is simply beautiful Great quilt patterns too Ready Set Snow is a winner - Me & My Sister always does well Nature's Gift & Winter Wonderland are nice, but more routine Elegance just looks too much like Winter Holiday and other lines out this past year |
I love 3,4 & 5th ones!! but they are all nice
|
My favorite was the ready, set, snow.
|
Ready, Set, Snow designed by Me & My Sister - 29 skus
http://www.unitednotions.com/fcc_Ready_Set_Snow.pdf Has lots of supporting fabrics that could easily be used with other fabric. Flurry by Kate Spain - 29 skus http://www.unitednotions.com/fcc_Flurry.pdf Not so much...nothing fresh and new Elegance by Sentimental Studio - 20 skus http://www.unitednotions.com/fcc_Elegance.pdf I like all the "swirly" supporting fabrics, the rest is old news. Believe Batiks by Laundry Basket - 23 skus http://www.unitednotions.com/fcc_Believe_Batiks.pdf REALLY like this one - not strictly Christmas, I would love to buy it! Nature's Gift by Deb Strain - 34 skus http://www.unitednotions.com/fcc_Natures_Gift.pdf Nothing new here either. Winter Wonderland by Ingrid Slyder - 32 skus http://www.unitednotions.com/fcc_Winter_Wonderland.pdf Very cute...love this line too! Hope that helps ya! |
I love Ready, Set, Snow; Flurry; and Elegance. I also love the medallions in Nature's Gift. I don't like Believe Batiks at all, and I think I could only use Winter Wonderland for a kid's Christmas quilt. I don't think I'll be making very many of those, but who knows?
Let us know what you order. Darren |
Believe Batiks and Nature's Miracle.
|
The first one for me. I want to buy it right now!
|
Elegance, Natures Girfts and Believe Batiks are my top three.
|
Kate Spain and the last two.
|
Elegance is my favorite and I also love Believe. The rest are nice also though. Don't think you can really go wrong.
|
My favorites are Ready, Set, Snow and Elegance.
|
1. Ready Set Snow -LOVE IT! Would definitely buy it.
2. Flurry - Like it, could see myself buying it 3. Elegance - Like it, could see myself buying it 4. Believe Batiks - Wouldn't buy for Christmas, but love batiks and might buy a few of the patterns for other times of the year 5. Nature's Gift - Don't like it and wouldn't buy 6. Winter Wonderland - Really like most of the patterns in the collection and would probably buy, except the prints with animals (not my style) Hope this helps! |
NATURES GIFT!!! love the polka dots and paisleys!!!
|
and....kate spains! that is very modern and fun!!!
|
I want the pattern of the Carpenters Star/Wheel that is in the Batiks section I love that idea made with log cabin
|
Elegant, Believe Batiks, and Nature Gift
are my favorite. How do I decide???? Believe Batiks, Nature Gift and Elegant in this order. |
My favorite is Elegance, but they are all beautiful!
|
I would buy Natures Gift and Ready, Set, Snow.
Cheers, K |
The last three are my favoites!
|
Elegance, Nature's Gift, and Winter Wonderland are my favs! The holly in the Elegance collection are absolutely lifelike! I liked the panels in the Nature's Gift collection, and of course, anything with cardinals always catches my eye!! The Winter Wonderland collection has several really sweet prints. I always love anything with winter animals and village scenes, but the coordinates are really cute, too. :wink: Decisions, decisions, decisions!!! :?
|
Alright I've looked them over and this is the order I would buy them...* Flurry *Believe Batiks * Elegance * Ready, Set, Snow * Winter Wonderland * Natures Gift
|
I would (and probably will) buy Ready Set Snow. I might get some Flurry. The rest, I wouldn't buy. Not my style.
|
It has to be Nature's Gift by Deb Strain, hands down. However, Elegance runs a very close second. I'm truly disappointed in what the rest had to offer, guess I expected more.
