    Sick? or what? Perverted I think. Ugly is a good word for those fabrics. Waste of material. In case you don't understand what I just said: I THINK THEY ARE OOOGLY UGLY!

    I think both of these are fun - I haven't seen them here yet. Perhaps we need some with police hats on...

    Not for me, but to each their own.

    I kind of like them actually. They're different. I don't know if I'd use those per say but I've used various skull fabrics in projects; everything from halloween ones to day of the dead ones...

    What a waste of talent. He has way too much time on his hands.

    i think they are hysterical! come on, folks--these are designed for the hip, artsy kids that are just discovering the joys of handwork and sewing. the skeleton is holding a book that says "quick and easy knitting projects"! i could be that skeleton, with as "easy" as knitting proved for me. i could easily die trying to finish even ONE knitting project! and the crossed knitting needles and open scissors are funny--it's a visual designed to make you smile or laugh; irony! everybody knows that pirates don't knit/sew!

    i may have to return to "lurk" mode for my opinion--but i would buy a fat quarter set, or yardage in a heartbeat if i saw this. of course, i have two studio artists in the family, and live in a huge arts center--but if this cutting edge (pun fully intended) stuff hit the streets at "crafty planet", a local young person oriented store, it would be gone in a day.

    the fabrics i can't stand are the insipid things that are being set on the shelves that have patterns reworked from the early '60s, with color combos that grate on the eyes. i lived through those design days once. i'm not doing it again. gimme a skeleton in a chair, with a dog with knitting in his jaws any time!

    I do not like that at all, but I am thinking the younger generation might, they seem to have a similar pattern on their ski attire when they come to work.

    I just don't get the skull stuff-it's even on kids' things. I really hate them.
