How about three little Fleur-de-Lys?

That's it, I've posted them all.

As a whole they are OK, not special IMO. However as Rose L said they would good fillers and backgrounds.

The others don't personally appeal to me, but if shops stocked according to that, there wouldn't be a Moda floral collection to be found anywhere. And people would be going Denyse who? ;-) :mrgreen: :mrgreen:

I'm sure, though, that there's an audience for the these as well.

Actually I like them all! I would use these for a baby blanket or otherwise.
The pink/grey combination is becoming very popular. ( I seem to remember that combo was also popular in the 80's??)
I think they are cute!

Some designer missed the boat with those fabrics. I don't find that much imagnation in it.

Honesy I would walk right past them in a store. They just don't catch my eye.

The group is called "Putting on the Ritz". Some of these would be good for nursery decor, but most of them are not just "baby".

Help!! What do you think? Do you find any appeal in these? For baby, or otherwise?

I'd not buy them.
