Thanks!
Save it for this year's ugly fabric contest!

Yes, that is what I first thought! But, believe me, I have one worse-even worse than last years that I posted (IF that is even possible!) LOL

tee hee

A bag came to mind here to. or even use it for a lining in a purse.

Fussy cut it, make wallhanging and name it "Not that for supper?" I'm not sure but let us know what you decide on.

How about a OBW..wall hanging? I think it would look great with Dark brown or black.

Yikes, it is hilarious! I like the bag idea......but it would be stolen in a flash! However, you could certainly identify it if you caught the mugger!
Actually, no kidding, it would make a great, very unusual bag.
I love that you bought something so unique!

It probably would, but I have never made one before, and got a really beautiful large floral print to try one-it's still sitting waiting patiently in my stash!! Good suggestions, though!
