you should not because generally the people on this board are NOT your customers and without seeing the actual fabrics your customers probably would not buy it either!

I think they are beautiful, but I would probably more interested in yardage as well if I were to buy any at all.

If you did a store sample out of the fabric you would probably get sales going. It looks beautiful but I can't really picture a pattern I would like to try them on.

I love purple/gold/green and I would buy yardage in the non-Christmas prints in the Wineberry and the Vanilla. They are beautiful prints and they would go beautifully in the purple/green/cream quilt I'm already planning.

I can't see myself making a purple Christmas quilt. Purple clashes with almost anyone's Christmas decor - and with their everyday decor, for that matter. Christmas at the beach house, maybe? Not that I have a beach house! LOL!

So tell me why I should - or should not - order this 13-piece FQ bundle for my store. It's all of the "Wineberry" fabrics pictured here: http://www.quiltingboard.com/picture...a-t175656.html plus six cream/ivory/natural/tan tonal ones.

Looks like beautiful prints. I'd say they were a safe bet!

I don't buy fat quarters unless it's something for applique, too expensive.....and I also don't care for large prints

For me it would depend on the different scale of patterns available ... the motion of the patterns ... and also the colors.

Usually bundles aren't my 'thing'.

Being picky ...

I REALLY like the purples. I tend to use my fabrics for many uses other than quilts. FQ's wouldn't work for me either though, and I would have to keep away from the Christmas specific prints, but there are others that I think would work really well for my needs. The fact they have the metallic in them is a big plus for me too. JMO
