Looking for something different? Well, okay then! Timeless Treasures just posted this on their website, so it must be brand new.

What do you make of THIS? Or, maybe the question should be what WOULD you make from this? (And would you drink your weight in wine before, during, or after using this fabric?)

Looking for ... fabric...?

Well, if I had any, I would send it to kwhite as an ugly fabric! LOL

burnsk 05-24-2010 07:12 AM

That fabric is too funny. Hmmm, I'm thinking a tote bag would be cute.

Quilter7x 05-24-2010 07:12 AM

I love it! I think it would make great bathroom curtains and a great quilt backing.

imjustme 05-24-2010 07:18 AM

I can't think of anything lol

sharon b 05-24-2010 07:19 AM

Quilt for a single friend ????

Rebecca VLQ 05-24-2010 08:00 AM

I'd make a skirt out of it, if only I wouldn't need "the Sunday edition" to cover my heiny! :D

Hey! who x'd out my ad?!

sewjoyce 05-24-2010 08:42 AM

OMG -- that is sew cute! It would be great for those little book covers, purses, eye glass case, pin cushion -- COASTERS would be just adorable and sure to be used just to be read. Will probably think of more later.... :lol: :lol:

Boy, do I feel dumb! :oops: :oops: I thought it was a real classified add at first, then I realized it was fabric! LOL! :mrgreen:

Could be fun to fussy cut along with the "fruit ladies" fabric. Doubt I would ever buy any though.

KatFish 05-24-2010 11:43 AM

I would (and most likly will) use it for the back side or end strip on these pillow cases I'm making with pin up girls for all the single guys in my family for Christmas gifts.

Would be fun and funny to use in a wall hanging for your batchelor son if you were inclined to give him large hint about finding someone.

Would also be fun to use in a quilt for a wedding present if the couple acutally met through personal want ads.

CarrieAnne 05-24-2010 12:13 PM

No idea, either, LOL!

I love all of these ideas :D:D:D

jljack 05-24-2010 02:17 PM

I think I'd make boxers and a tank top to wear as pajamas. Can't think of any quilt I would inflict with this stuff!! But cute as PJs!!

I love the PJ's idea. Perfect for my single daughter.

You are not alone! I am reading each one of the adds trying to find the add for the fabrics.
I think it would be cute for the bachelor boys Christmas quilt.
It's cute, now that I have come out of my cloud. :oops:

sahm4605 05-25-2010 04:20 AM

it would make a great wall hanging for near the toilet. that way there is always something to read in the bathroom. Have fun using it in what ever endeavor you take on.

aliaslaceygreen 05-25-2010 04:28 AM

I LOVE it... how funny!!!!
I could see almost anything being made out of it for little gifts for your girlfriends...single or not!! It's a hoot...
love the idea of pj bottoms especially...

sylslight 05-25-2010 07:24 AM

OMG I thought it was real advertisments and was reading every one thinking there was one about quilting! Then I read some of the ladies posts about it being fabric!!!! :oops:

I would never never use something like this. It might imply to the receiver that you think they are a slut or something. But, if you know someone who can take it as fun, like I am sure its meant to be, then I guess have a good time using it....

Don't feel bad, I did the same thing and wondered which ad she was talking about. When it dawned on me that IT was the fabric, I felt foolish. But I bet others did the same thing.

I'd like to get some for a small purse for my oldest daughter who is recovering from divorce. I think she'd get a big kick out of it and would appreciate the humor. So would her friends.

If I had a piece of it I would be willing to send it back to the mfg.

BellaBoo 05-25-2010 01:08 PM

That ad for Free Spirit is exactly what my youngest DD would have written. I think she may have, it's so how she thinks.

theresse 05-25-2010 06:19 PM

Very funny. Can't seem to get the joke. I wouldn't be caught dead wearing something in that. This would deffenatly win an ugly contest.

Margie 05-25-2010 07:04 PM

I wouldnt buy it to begin with lol

Sherri, don't feel bad so did I.

LOVE the PJ idea!! :thumbup:

Fabricnut 05-26-2010 02:58 PM

That has to be the funniest fabric I've ever seen! A bathroom wall hanging would be cute for a single friend or maybe a just married one.

zz-pd 05-26-2010 04:09 PM

I would not buy it. God bless. Penny

well, I would not buy it, but have seen some pretty good ideas here for using it. I have to admit, I was surprised!
I guess i just don't think like a single mouse! :XD:

craftybear 05-27-2010 10:46 AM

funny

mistiliz 05-27-2010 11:14 AM

I definitely would send it to kwhite for the MOST ugly fabric. LOL
