Our quilt club did an ugly fabric game. Each brought 1 1/4 yds of ugly fabric. We first tore our piece of fabric in half, either lengthwise or crosswise; held on to one half and put the other half at our side; and then to music, passed the one piece of fabric until music stopped, continuing to tear in half, pass one half and put the other half in the pile beside us. We then again tore it in half and continued this until we had as small a piece of fabric as around 5x7. We each took one pile of fabric home and made a lap quilt to bring back to the next meeting and we took them to the local nursing homes. We did this again with fabric suitable for babies in NNICU and gave the quilts (no larger than 36" square) to the hospital for those babies. In either case, we used only the fabric we brought home and used a quilt pattern of our own choice. Amazing how they turned out. I used Trip Around the World for one and Disappearing 9 Patch for the other.
