Not a fan...I'm probably in the minority. I prefer more traditional fabrics.....now I'm ducking and hiding! LOL I lost all attraction to Moda, but I'm probably in the minority on that one, too. I've noticed a decline in quality over the years and have heard war stories on how they treat their designers.

MY LQS just got back from Market and showed me what she ordered. She stepped outsider her box and ordered this. I was glad. Brights/moderns are so popular. It will extend her customer base and I want that for her.
I could use it in making stuff for younger women. They would love it.

Personally, my favorite design is the leafy vines. Those, I think, are not such a "big stretch" from some of the more traditional fabrics that I gravitate toward.
I must confess that I have no idea how to use the zigzag prints though. And Moda is not the only company who has those in their line-up. Riley Blake has three sizes of zigzags, and I think Robert Kaufman has one too.

Slightly off topic. . .
Do you happen to know if the designer is Vanessa Christienson? I think V and Co. is her company and she's the woman that designed the houndstooth quilt that I absolutely LOVE.
You can see a version someone made in red and white here if you are interested:

BTW. . . I love the fabrics and love the idea of making a picnic blanket and matching outfit for my daughter. Not all fabrics would look good in both.
