Fabric binge

Joann's had one of their evil, evil pattern sales and I scooped up nearly all of their Built By Wendy ones, as well as a few retro suiting patterns and shift dresses.

All these ones would be perfect for straight little mod dresses:

I NEED this material, the color scheme is sooo sweet and it highlights my love of wood.

It's a few too many colors for my taste but it's too cute.

These Marimekkos reinforce my power of automatically falling in love with the most expensive item on the page. There's a reason they're still around though, their fabrics are AMAZING.

This I think would make a really cute Lilly Pulitzer style dress.

AHH so cute.

I want to make these into this dress: http://www.builtbywendy.com/onlineshop/cart.php?target=product&product_id=16905&category_id=296
about halfway between the two dress lenghts, with the ties on the sleeves.

This is the first fabric I KNOW I want, it reminds me of Mr Wilson's prints, I just can't decide on the color. Grey?

Green with yellow?

Gold? My mom voted for the bright blue. I also kind of like the purple and orange, augghh. So undecided. I also want to make http://cgi.ebay.com/Simplicity-3833-MOD-1960s-Retro-Dress-6-14_W0QQitemZ330124889687QQihZ014QQcategoryZ11801QQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem
in http://www.marshalldrygoods.com/store/index.php?action=item&id=1258&prevaction=category&previd=29&prevstart=0 for the body and
http://www.marshalldrygoods.com/store/index.php?action=item&id=1557&prevaction=category&previd=29&prevstart=0
for the top panel, but I can't decide which color either. It's only purple, green or grey, but I don't want the same color for both dresses. I'm also making it out of a vintage gold sheet with woven vertical stripes.
