I don't know what came over me when I made this quilt top but it's the ugliest thing I've ever made!!! I must have had my eyes closed while I was putting it together!! It's so ugly I never finished it and I don't think I ever will!!

Who else has an ugly quilt they would like to share?!!

Is there a picture of it??

It's not that bad. Finish it up and donate it. I'm sure that someone along the way will love it!!!

When I looked at the quilt I immediately thought of pioneer women and how they may have put together a quilt for their log cabin homes. They used what they had. I do not think of it as ugly, but a historical copy of days gone by. I would finish it and make it into a blanket rather than a quilt to use over a blanket (if you still think it is ugly.) I would use the solid green you have used in the quilt already and then add a wide dark brown border to frame it. I hope you do not give up on this quilt. I like it.

You could always make a cat or dog bed from them. I plan on making a few with my scraps and donating them to the local Animal center.

or...how about that twister ruler...I bet that would make it look awesome. I have not tried it but many here have.

It's not that bad!! If you don't like it then finish it and donate it to a homeless shelter.

I'll share, lol. This is for my boys, and instead of planning, I just picked out lots of 'boy' fabrics and this is how it turned out.

It's fitting, though, b/c it's loud and scrappy, just like them!

Nope that's not ugly either.
