    Do you think these fabrics go together? Please give your honest opinion.

    same fabrics, another view

    i think so... the only one i think is standing out(that just doesn't look right with the rest) is the dark redish color one with the circles on it....

    They are perfect! Except for the plumish one- not sure what you would call it.
    Great fabs!!!!!! :D
    What are you making?

    I would leave the pink out. Otherwise you have a wonderful color pallette of gold with the colors going in one direction to the lighter shades and in the other direction to the darker shades. The pink shouldn't be in there.

    I would be tempted to add another plum or take it out and add a green (like your ivy fabric's leaves). But it's a nice lineup for sure, very autumn mums feeling.

    I like them all, but if I had just read your description and not seen the pic, I wouldn't have, LOL.

    I like all of them together, depending on what you are making. Did you use the 'plum' because of the colors in the leaf fabric on the left? You could use the plum as the 'standout' fabric, but you already have the darker orange one for that, and the color palate centers around the orange/yellow line. Otherwise, I too would take it out and add a more subtle green similar to the leafy vine one. Another reason I would take out the plum and use the orange as the bolder is because orange is in the black fabric. And you want to keep that one I would hope. This is going to be a wonderful end result no matter what you are making.

    I like them all. Each color helps pull colors from the others and I love that look, especially when it all pulls together and has enough offset to make it "POP" all the colors all the way around!!! Good choices!!!
