I had some real ugly fabric that had some big fruits on it and was orange and pink and purple with puce and a real strange yellow. Cut that puppy up and made a real striking OBW.
which my DH at first called the pepto bismol quilt because of all the pepto pink in it. Sometimes ugly fabric just needs the right home for it. Although I don't think you should go on a fabric diet, sometimes these things are another way to exercise your creativity. If you can't make it, oh well. You are not perfect :) :)
