Hate it; Hate it! I think this stems from when I had a roommate who sewed her own clothes; a new suit and blouse nearly every week. The only problem was that she used the same pattern each time and each blouse was paisley (in the days when blouses all had the big tie bows at the neck. Yuck!

I don't remember how I felt about them in the 60's and 70's, but I love them now. Would love to see some more pictures of quilts featuring paisley fabrics. I'll keep watching this topic.

Loved that fabric line. That designer just released another collection that used the same color palette and a lot of the same designs. If you wanted to get more. :lol:

For some reason the paisleys are not showing up for me.

I like the very detailed paisley's that I see...the retro '60's not at all.

I love paisley. I think it is the intricate designs that appeal to me. I have a dark blue blouse, long-sleeve, polyester. It is the most comfortable blouse I own. Can't be the design, must be the fabric.
