I don't see any "ugly". Looks great!

thanks for all the nice comments... I was a little afraid that it might not be good enough to submit for the challenge, but I sent the photo in tonight.

isn't it funny how we see things differently. i have used this fabric as a border on an asian fabric with koi. all i saw was the perfect color and looked like fish scales.

you have used it perfectly.

I love the uniqueness. The 'horses' do jump out at you, don't they!

That is so very cool. I agree with Nativetexan it looks like something out of a dream. I have that same fabric in a steel blue color. I just saw waves when I looked at it. But once you mention horses I do see them.

You met and exceeded the challenge. Love it. Sometimes it is hard to think outside the box, but the results are definitely worth it. Good luck!
