THAT's your ugliest block? Sheez, you must have some gorgeous blocks, if that's the best you can do for "ugly". <G> Show us some of your other blocks! :)

Nothing ugly about this block ! I REALLY like it..........make some more !

Like the Ugly Duckling, it became a beautiful swan. Gorgeous block.

Whoa, there is nothing ugly about this block. I want to make an entire quilt with it....it is gorgeous. I think the fabrics are elegant and I love the block. Oh, now I am going to be dreaming about this block and finding the fabric for it. Now see what you did.....LOL

Is there a pattern for it or did you just cut it on an angle yourself?

Nothing ugly about this one - I love it!

Thanks!! One other question, before I try it. What size were the blocks that you made your 4 patch from?

If that is the ugliest fabric in your stash, you must have a nice stash.

Very pretty! I love the colors too.

I agree!

It turned into a swan!!! Isn't it amazing what you can do to a fabric when you combine it with something else?
:thumbup:

What is so "ugly" about that fabric or block - I think it would make a very nice quilt.

That is NOT ugly. I love it.

Ugly? It's gorgeous!

I actually like it... lending truth to the saying: Beauty (or in this case, ugly) is in the eye of the beholder. I behold a pretty awesome block here....

I like it! Nice colors

That is not ugly, you have to make an ugly one, ( just kidding). Nice.

nothing ugly about this block. I really like this one. I bet this would look lovely as quilt.

I LOVE it! I think it should win a prize for the prettiest "ugly" block :thumbup: :lol: :thumbup:

Yeah, I too was expecting something ugly...but this is not ugly

I think it looks great. Nothing ugly there

I made a D4P with 7 inch squares to start off with. After it was all put together I took my 9 1/2 square ruler and marked the center of it. Then I lined up the center of the ruler with the center of the block and rotated it. I stopped rotating it when the corners of the ruler met the edges of the block. Pushing firmly on the ruler so as not to move it the slightest during cutting I then cut all the way around the square. I hadn't planned on making a quilt with this since it's going to the Quilting group I belong to as a BOM...but...since I was so pleasantly surprised with the results...I may have to re-think that! ;-)

The starting squares were 7 inches.

I like it.

I really like it!!

Thought it was a very striking block. Colors are great as well as placement.

Very pretty and striking. I like it!!

I'm afraid you "failed" on the ugly part. I like it.

I really like this! I think it is beautiful!

I really like it. If you think this is "ugly" i don't want you looking at my stash. lol

I do like the "slight twist" you put on the D4P. Gives it a whole new look.

I love it. No "ugly" duckling here. A real swan!

That is cool!

soooo wheres the ugly block??? I'll check again later for the correct pic to be displayed

Beautiful block and fabric!

I think its rather pretty, but those are colors that I seem to like.

I love your block. Would like to see the whole quilt. I bet it is marvelous. Thanks for sharing.

I don't see anything ugly there!!

A very dynamic block! I like it!

Karen, thank you for much for all the information. I HAVE to make this block and I want it to be very much the same colors and fabrics as yours. You did a wonderful job of putting those fabrics together. I think it is going to make an elegant quilt. Thanks again.

Love it!! :)

Oma, I'm so glad you like this! If you make a quilt using this block make sure I see your post...I'd love to see it! Right now I have too many other ideas for quilts floating around in my head to make one with this! lol!
