Ahhhhh......what to say. Find something nice to say. I know "that sure is nice and bright."

If it makes you feel better, it still looks pretty bad to these eyes. :lol:

I think you oughta go with your original thought. I don't know how bad it could have been before washing and ironing, but that should qualify as truly ugly! :lol:

I love it, too.

yes, sorry cjomomma that is not an ugly fabric.

cjomomma 05-02-2010 05:58 AM

I can't stand that print. I think it is called paisley. I won't tell you what it reminds me of. To me the colors do not compliment each other. Reminds me of the 70's. The camera didn't get the colors exactly right but it is close. I do hope somebody else gets to own it.

thequilterslink 05-02-2010 06:04 AM

Chasing Hawks..I love yours LOL

adriansmom 05-02-2010 06:18 AM

Chasing Hawks...yours does not qualify!! I love it! If I saw it in a shop...I would definitely be buying some.

As they say, beauty is in the eye of the beholder...I love paisley and I also love the seventies!

Twisted Quilter's scrap might not be a beauty in scrap form. But if someone had made a quilt that looked like that, nicely pieced, very "art-y", with a dramatic black border, it would probably win a prize at a quilt show.

CJOMOMMA submitted a paisley. Being a lover of paisley fabrics I really like that one.

Chasing Hawk shows what looks like a Laurel Burch fabric or a LB wannabe. I like that one too.

I think I should avoid reading this thread LOL.

craftybear 05-02-2010 01:03 PM

this will be fun to see all of the fabrics, but some are not ugly!

Okay, here's my entry. If you're thinking quilts, and not gaudy Hawaiian shirts, what do you do with this. I bought it for a backing for a charity quilt!

Good luck to the winner...they can have more than a fat quarter if they want!

Orange, pink and catty all over

Yep, this one is definitely in the running! The rest look pretty good, but my vision is not as good as it use to be.

NorBanaquilts 05-02-2010 03:24 PM

I actually like whinneytoo's fabric. Can we see the matching print?

Me too...I can't handle any more of whinneytoo's fabric!

And I hope Quilting Nonnie doesn't have anything that goes with that orange cat fabric! Enough is enough!

kwiltkrazy 05-02-2010 04:50 PM

Boy, I don't know, I think I could use all those fabrics, none of them are really ugly.

Be careful what you ask for...If I win, I just might send them to you

Barb I don't think that is ugly. I have fabric that would work with it.
