Gosh, I really love this fabric. It is very interesting, and could be used so many ways. I would use it in some kind of tree of life, I like the kaleidescope thought, definitely a pink breast cancer survivor quilt.
Wow! I'd be glad to take your ugly fabric. I'll take your scraps....pls.... MJ |
Interesting--when I first saw the fabric I was thinking a lot of hands in pink rubber gloves (you know the kind you would wear to wash dishes). It is not a fabric that I would have purchased, but then I am pretty darn conservative. I do really like the other fabrics you bought to go with it and am looking forward to seeing what you make out of it.

I can't wait to see what you come up with! Maybe you could put your other projects on hold and get started on this one. :wink: :D

Just a thought :? |
butt ugly as a topic caught my attention. I expected to see something really bad. I saw lots of nice fabrics. Now the hands- they aren't ugly, but different. I wouldn't have chosen it either. I would take a pattern that has lots of pieces and make it the smallest piece so you couldn''t tell they were hands.
As for where those hands have been- somebody's butt or a baby, I would hope they washed them first. :) Now- go find some ugly fabric. I guess, like beauty, ugly is in the eye of the beholder. :) Barb (P.S. talk about ugly, hubby and son met the neighbors- they said she has a moustache- dark and full and about 1/2 inch wide- now that's beauty in a whole new way!) Hubby wants to know why I don't have one. |
when my kids told me I had one is when I started waxing, I thought of breast cancer right away when i saw the fabric. Just add pink ribbons somewhere.
|
I'm a wimp, waxing looks painful. Of course, there might be a few people I might want to wax something for them. he he.
|
The subject caught my eye too.
I didn't think the fabric was ugly at all. ! thought of the song "He's got the whole world in his hands" or "It's a small world" and the hands represent a great big group hug of all cultures and children... I liked the fabrics you chose to go with it! Very pretty! |
So what did you ever do with the fabric ? Saw this the first time it was posted and just ran across it again.
|
I don't think it's ugly. I really like the fabric you chose to go with it. :-)
