    like them.
    they integrate well into traditional, Asian and contemporary designs.
    great for repeats: stack and whack, kaleidoscope, etc.

    but then, I love pattern and one of my favorite games is incorporating lots of line and color - paisleys fit the bill-

    I love it. I used a lot in this scrappy quilt(Stars Across America) in small pieces,,,and the mug was a gift from my ,then 3,year old granddaughter.She was out shopping with her mama and said "oh look ,a Paisley cup,lets get it for Nana!!" Her mama had no clue,but Natalie knew Nana likes it.She is 4 now and I catch her fondling my fat quarters,so I know shes hooked! LOL!

    Paisley is timeless, like plaids, The colors may change but love that they never go out of style.

    Looks like I'm in the minority, but I can't stand paisley. Not sure why, just don't like it.

    Love it - my first article to sew in Home Ec was a paisley housecoat. Whenever I see paisley, I'm momentarily back in the 9th grade.

    I don't like paisley much. It reminds me of the 60's. YUCK!
