I called it "ugly" because in my small stash, the speckled brown fabric is the "ugliest" fabric I could find and that was the assignment...to take "ugly" fabric and see what kind of block you could make with it. I actually like the block because by using some additional fabrics and a rather contemporary block design I was able to make a rather interesting block! Like someone else posted above..."the duck becomes the swan"! ;-)

I love the block, it is not ugly

I do not see anything ugly. It is beautiful.

ditto

I agree -- you took the ugly out of the fabric by using it uniquely!

Turned out fabulous ... the ugly duckling is now a pretty swan

Oh is that pretty. ugly fabric makes the best quilts

That's not ugly that is very pretty. Really like it.

I think it's very attractive and I like the colors lots!

Lovely Block :) (I even like the ugly fabric)
