Welcome to my new series "Things I don't like but everyone else seems to...". As a nice person (I believe), I wasn't sure if I should write this series. Then I realised I was taking it all far too seriously and as long as I remember Wheaton's Law (Don't be a Dick) I will be fine :)
SO - on to the series. Note there will likely be few or no pictures in these posts - they are just me wittering.
Things I don't like but everyone else seems to #1 is a biggie. It's liberty fabric.
I can hear the collective in-drawing of breath and shaking of heads. It's obviously a failing in my taste as everyone else raves about it, but I just don't get it. I like some of the prints (mostly if they are small scale and colours I am drawn to) but mostly they seem outdated or too busy or just too floral. Classic liberty for me is just meh. I don't hate it, but I don't understand the serious love there is out there for it.
Phew! That wasn't so bad! Anyone else out there not digging the Liberty?

I am with you - Liberty fabric is very "meh" and I would not be paying that kind of money for merely meh. Whilst I agree with this one, I am slightly nervous on what might be coming up next in this series!!!
ReplyDeleteGotta say I'm not a big fan of the prints... but I did once touch some because I had to work out why everyone raved about old fashioned fabric that sold for $50/mtr ... and it was so lovely and soft and smooth and drapey...
ReplyDelete... pitty about the prints.
