    I think the dots and swirls are something I would consider purchasing but not any of the others.

    I think they are mix and match type fabrics; each style in it's own is not "enough" so it needs "more" to make the fabrics 'happen'.

    I like them very much. It's a nice departure from the pink/brown and blue/brown combinations that have been so popular for nursery decor. I could see myself using these fabrics if I hadn't already made everything for my granddaughter's nursery (you guessed it...pink & brown).

    Some remind me of the old 'flocked' wallpaper - just not my style.
    However, others of these would make great blender and coordinating fabric in quilts.
    Isn't it nice we each have different tastes in the fabric we choose so the board is never the same twice, never boring? I'm sure some will love these fabrics - will like to see what gets made using some of these.

    I like the word fabrics and the swirly ones. Definitely do not like the damask or the crowns. Some of the others are okay, but probably wouldn't buy the line.

    they aren't 1970's avacado green or gold ewwwwwwwww but sort of bland and uninspiring. There are several that seperatly I liked. But on a whole they really didn't stir any emotions towards wanting or having to have them. sorry.

    I don't like the word ones...damask, swirl, and ticking are good.
