Forgot to tell you this hint: I usually buy my OBW fabrics on the mark down rack at my LQS. Sometimes "ugly" fabrics that are on clearance make the most interesting quilts, provided you like the colors. You have to like the colors, but not the design or images on fabric. You'll need a lot of yardage, so clearance pricing is a good thing! Also, be sure to put a piece of the original fabric on the back of the quilt for a "before and after" effect.
