I think it's unattractive, but the cats all have open eyes - maybe the designer was trying to convey that cats think they are angelic - even when they are being brats. ????

Sort of like a Ripley's Believe it or Not. It's an artist line produced by Michael Miller. Yuck. Trust me, the cats look sadder in person.

This is soooo bad on soooo many levels. I'm a textile designer that work for Timeless Treasures, Northcott, P&B, just to mention a few, and never would I have allowed something like this to get past my office.I see things like this and I wonder why I'm still out of work.

Hi, Janet - You know? The VERY first thing I thought of when I saw this post and the dead cat fabric picture, was how COULD they create this as part of a fabric line when your gorgeous zodiac fabric was rejected for publication, so to speak (not necessarily by MM, but by your dealers). What makes this acceptable and yours NOT? I just don't understand.
Your design was beautiful and a sure winner. This is not fit for rags.

Just my 2 bits worth.

I must be crazy but I think it is kind of cute. Must be all the pain meds I've been on.

You have my vote for ugliest fabrics. What were they thinking? What are you planning to do with us? I am sure there is a quilter somewhere who will do something fantastic with this UGLY fabric.

I'm surprised michael miller would have something so distasteful. I would never buy/use something so horrid! It almost looks like a joke. A bad one.

I agree. That fabric puts the 'U' in ugly. Candace, you get the award and I'm afraid that the prize might be some more ugly fabric. If I had some, I would send it to you. But, all of my fabric is pretty.
I couldn't figure out what that white stuff was on the cats. When someone mentioned 'angels', I thought it was a poor excuse for wings. One has to look long and hard to figure it out.

I think Cheryl T. from Fresno must have fallen out of bed and landed on her head. Cheryl you are sick, sick, sick.

Thanks for the laugh. That fabric is a scream. :roll:
