Ugh. FUGLY.

However, I can see I was attempting to do some 'unique' design patterns to make it a bit different. The variety of sizes for seam allowances is very amusing. Even within the same seam.

One of my unique :roll: design elements was made up of diamonds and triangles. I apparently came up with my own method of trying to get them to match up.

At a quick glance, I had about a 15% success rate.

Oh, and the lovely Rag Shop calicoes.

Oy.

As I look at my stash of luscious imported Japanese fabrics, I have to laugh.

I think I'm going to just get some similar fabric at Joann's and put a wide border on it..without trying to square it up. The wide border should take care of that.

And then send it out for some quick all over design just to call it DONE.

It will be really, really nice to cross that off the list.
FUGLY is frickin' funny! :lol:
