Pansy and Primary are my favorites. What are you going to do with them?

I'm considering buying them for our shop.

Since batiks are "all about color"... I'm trying not to be overly influenced by my own color preferences, which is why I'm hoping to get other opinions.

I like them all, can never have enough batiks in a stash (or store).

I don't even know what our cost will be yet... the sales rep is coming next Thursday and I can find out then. I think that these multi-color batiks are going to be more expensive than, say Hoffman 1895 watercolors or any monochromatic batiks. I find the multiple colors more interesting, but that's just me. I wonder if others find the multi-colors more, or less, useful than the ones that "read more solid"?
