I like it... I can imagine using just about any color to mix with this print. I think blues would look very pretty, even greens or reds. Oh and purples!

A very soft silvery blue :D It would really be elegant :!:

I like it too. I think it reminds me of dusk in winter. Imagine a snowy day, and the sun is almost set. There's enough light left to see everything around you, but it's reflected off the snow and makes everything look grey or blue. That's the feeling I get when I see the image on this fabric. I would put it with blue, grey, or pale purple to reinforce the snow feeling. I might even look for a white on white or silver on white snowflake print as well.

That is a fantastic idea! You can come and help me pick out fabric any time.

I like them all, too. I actually have some of the third one from several years ago. I made a bunch of bowls with it. Turned out gorgeous.

I like them...they are quite subtle and I think could be incorporated into quite contemporary designs. The more "natural" ones are pretty too, but sometimes it is nice to have a subtle print.
