It is indeed beautiful ... and I'd love to see what that "ugly" was in its virgin state! Would you post a pic of it? Please? and Thanks!
Well, I don't have any of the original fabrics left, I ended up giving the scraps to a friend who wanted to replicate the quilt as best as she could. But here are some close-ups of the fabrics I used. I HATED the pinkish/green geometric fabric in the bottom triangle of the first picture.

Somebody told me once that if you think a fabric is ugly, you haven't cut it small enough yet. :)
