I agree.. the ones you think are hideous are my faves...

Wow! What a deal! Even those "ugly" fabrics might make a great kaleidoscope quilt!

You can send me that hideous fabric. I know actually how to cut it. Fussy cut blades for Grandma's Fan quilt!! with pink, purple and yellow half circles. White sashing, with, again pink, purple or yellow cornerstone and purple binding.

Your hideous fabric would make a great stack-n-whack quilt. Sometimes you need to cut the fabric into pieces to see the inner beauty.

Nice that the fabric fairy knows your address! Surely you'll find some magical projects out of all that!

Wow - There are a lot of people on this Board who could give you ideas for this fabric.

Have I got a great pattern idea for you. (Wish I had this fabric). I was looking in my stash to make this pattern but did not enough floral prints. The pattern is a 6 inch snowball block with 21/2 inch corner squares, for a total of 25 blocks, or whatever size you decide. What so special about this you ask? Do the background and border in a black Kona cotton. It's so effective. ( In my humble opinion?)
