*Ugly* fabric can be beautiful in the right conditions. If someone asks me if I like something that I really don't I try and find the positive in it. A QB asked me about some fabric that I thought was terribly busy and ugly, I told her while I didn't care for the print especially I did like the shade of blue. Turns out when it was all stitched up she's brought in other fabrics to really bring out the blues, and I didn't even notice the print when it was all quilted.
