Any suggestions on what kind of quilt I could make with them that would lessen the ugly when mixed together with the other scraps and remnants I have? Is there a particular pattern any of you use to make something worthwhile from fabric you just aren't crazy about? HELP!
Bonnie Hunter of Quiltville will tell you, if it's still ugly you haven't cut it small enough.
I had the ugliest fabric in the universe - then I saw it on the cover of a well known book - and no - the tiltle wasn't ugliest fabric ever!! lol
I do go with Bonnie's belief. I've used so so fabric in a quilt and was quite happy with it cut up small!!!
