They call the circles "snow dot", 'cause they sort of have a snowflake in them.

Now this one, I think is definitely "muddy". Looks kinda like oreos to me.

Ok, they do have one dark green trees which is pretty traditional.

Well, the trees aren't green, it's the background that's green.

I'll be the odd man out here. I like them all "except" for the last one (snow dot)- Oreo Cookie looking one. I'm not sure that I would do a quilt with them, but I can see them in table runners, pot holders, the odd pillow cover.

Thanks

I like the first one and this last one. The others are just not something I would buy

I guess I'm old fashioned but the rich reds and greens still are the ones that catch my eye. Turquoise blue just has never seemed liked a Christmas color. That is a stretch....

(thank goodness, we have stashes and have been hording for quite awhile)

I like all the Christmas trees and snowflake prints. My favorite colors are Burgundy, pinks and greens...they match my decor better than the bright reds/greens.

They remind me of wrapping paper, too. Though not necessarily wallyworld. Actually, I saw more of these "modern" designs on gift wrap than I did the more traditional ones this year.

Are the more modern designs for the younger crowd? Am I too old to "get it"? My daughter would tell me so... but then, we don't share the same tastes in anything except ice cream anyway.
