The one I hated was a simple framed rectangle pattern. I was trying to make it bright and colorful for aTeenager charity quilt, but my fabric selections were just awful. All those colors mixed together in the blocks looked like my dog ate a box of crayons and vomited all over the quilt!!! I am still trying to salvage the blocks, have not sewn them together yet. I am thinking about putting WIDE black strips between the blocks to tone it down and make 3 different quilts from that stack of blocks. I actually toyed with the idea of starting an ugly quilt thread on this board but didn't know if others would be Interested in doing that!
