Oh how neat & funky! They remind me of Spirograph, the craft thingy we did as a kid! Gosh, I don't know what I would do with them but I sure would have fun thinking of something!

I like the flower ones, especially the ones with black backgrounds. Couldn't buy the wavy one since I can't look at it - it messes with my eyes. 8-)

I like them, and could imagine using them for backing or sashings/borders. The wavey stripes would make an awesome binding. They could be cute on bags or purses.

I like them but not sure I would buy them. They need to not be cut up so used in larger pieces or borders?

They remind me of the designs we used to make with a gizmo called a Spirograph. Popular in the late 70's. I like them, especially the flower ones. And the black background.

I kind of like the fabrics, although I have an aversion to black. I prefer navy rather than black. If the background was navy, I'd use them in scrappy quilts.
