I have finally decided that it is, truly, ugly.

As a matter of fact, the fabric was given to me a few years ago (over 2 yards) and one year I made a dog coat using the fabric for the underlying portion and the top of the dog coat was recycled jeans. It did not look too bad on the dog, and besides if the dog went out to potty or did his outdoor thing, it was not noticeable.....LOL......hee, lame but true......

The good news is that whoever wins only has to deal with a fat quarter of this ... stuff.
Husband said the airplane might be a spitfire. Spit. Fire. Both sound like good options.

Funny thing you think they are ugly and they are in your stash. I'm sure someone saw the potential within at some point in time. Amazing how when they are cut into smaller pieces and put with accent fabrics how beautiful they become. For example, the shopping bags.
