Michael Miller has a new collection out called "Countryville". While I can easily imagine kitchen decor with the first picture, the second has me stumped.
What do you do with a weathervane fabric?

I can see the bottom fabric as curtains and the top as a valence.
Also, bottom fabric could be the "neutral". But, surely, there's more than two fabrics in the line. Don't they have some pretty reds and greens to go with it?

Ok, here's a link to the whole group on Michael Miller's site:

I don't think they have the two Krystal coordinates named correctly though. They can't both be called Krystal, with two different pattern numbers. Don't know what's up with that!

I would use both in a barnyard quilt/ child's quilt.
The first would be backing, the second would be one of the light fabrics.
Children, especially infants, really go for the strong contrasting prints. I used something similar in a baby quilt for my boss when she had her first child. She said the baby REALLY loved the contrasting colors and brights.
Good luck!

I would fussy - cut the individual images and have them as focal points of interest in each block that I design around them. I personally would use black and white solids and prints, plus a touch of yellow in each block.
