It is spring time here, hard to sew when the weather is so beautiful outside! I found some fat Quarters to go with the Ugly fabric I got. Now to just sit down and di it! I am working on UFP this week, as well as a few orders.
I have a cute pinwheel project for our Charity quilt club, so it should be a busy time, even if I would rather be outside in the yard.
Happy sewing ladies

I haven't had a chance to sew my ugly yet, but it's coming up to the top of the list. As soon as I finish a couple swap blocks and a t-shirt quilt for graduation gift next month.

Mustard and white. I have over 2/3 yard. It's a vintage Peter Pan fabric.

This is rust and is a little bigger than a fat 1/3.

[ATTACH=CONFIG]331130[/ATTACH][ATTACH=CONFIG]331131[/ATTACH]here is the top of my quilt made from the ugly fabric I received. The ugly fabric used for outer borders reminded my daughter of tornadoes so I found the pictures of the OZ characters. The Yellow sashings represent the Yellow Brick Road. The second picture is a closeup of Toto with the backing material alongside. In Munchkin land, poppies can be blue. Will post again once I figure out how I will be quilting.
