The first one reminds me of selvedges sewed together. The second one reminds me of a keyboard.

If it's too far "out there"... then I'd better stay away from it. At least, the one with the numbers. The circuit board print is easier to understand.

I know there are a lot of geeks out there... but I'm not sure how many geeks also sew or quilt! :?:

I love all of them. I would buy them. Even if you don't make something for yourself....I know those fabrics would make some awesome laptop bags.

What about fabrics 2 & 3 ? Can't they be included in a throw down?

It's all Greek and Arabic and Wingdings to me. I absolutely love it and the circuit board, too. Is it a programming language?

As far as using it? It would make a terrific city skyline with the circuit board as the night sky. It would look wild in a french braid.

In honor of "Tron" you could applique human figures made from the number strings onto the circuit board.

Cut rectangles from the number strings and surround them with a grey border (representing a computer screen). Piece the rectangles with the black in squares/rectangles.

How about an information "superhighway"---string vehicles in all directions on black circuit fabric.

A computer fabric bargello?

Hey I didn't see the keyboards until now. LOL, LOL the keyboard fabric would make fabulous borders. :thumbup:
