Decided to just go with the black binding and not search further for more of the (not at all) 'ugly'. Using a brown fleece as backing/batting. Got it all pinned together ready to stitch. Hope I can get that done tomorrow.

Here is the quilt top I made from my "ugly" fabric. It is twin size and does not have a designated recipient. I had fun making this one and using up a lot of hard to use fabrics. I like how it turned out too. I think it will make a great masculine quilt. Does anyone still think I got the ugliest fabric?

Hi Foxflower, your quilt is awesome! You really made the best use of your odd-ball fabrics. A great quilt for sure!

P.S. Here's a link to the pattern. It's rated 3 out of 3 stars on the difficulty, but it wasn't hard at ALL. There's one seam where you have to "fold" the fabric in order to sew it, but it's simple. Not sure why they rated it as being difficult. I'll definitely be making this pattern again! :thumbup:

Thank you JenniePennie. I like it.

I love the quilt! I am always looking for a cool quilt to make for the guys. I don't see anything ugly about your fabric, Great Job!
I think it is time for a New ugly Fabric Swap! I just got another delivery from my sister! She is so kind and loving, but doesn't get it! So I have some stuff that looks like it came out of the drug induced 60's LOL. |
Mary, I'd love to see pics of some of your psychadelic fabrics! Got any tie-dye in there? ;) I'm glad you like that quilt top. I think I've identified someone to finish it for and give it too.

Ok so does everyone want to do another ugly fabric quilt challenge? If so would you want to change up some of the rules?
|
I would love to do another ugly fabric exchange, what rule changes did you have in mind?
|
I thought there were some great fabrics in there - that if they had been up for sale (which I know they weren't) I would definitely been interested in acquiring them.
I guess beauty - and/or ugly - truly is in the eye of the beholder. |
