The "busy" first print would make an awesome Stack-n-Whack. Can you image the many different looks it could achieve??? Boggles the mind and the other prints could be used as the borders or sashings and background.

The first two sets are a little busy. A n S&W would work I think. That third set though is pretty. I like it.

I think a little busy but I like them. I think the first one would have to be a center piece toned down with solid color borders.

Love the colors. Not anything I'd buy, but that's just my taste. I can see lots of pretty quilts made with it, for sure. The busy one is nice, but will definitely need "calming" down in a big way!

I think the first fabric is a little helter skelter but I like the complimentary pieces. I doubt I would buy the first one but love the panel one and would definitely buy the others.

I think the first one would make an awesome back for a quilt that was made with the other fabrics on the front.
