Oh, I like Jackie Spencer's idea! You could even put the flowers into a vase and make it all into a wall hanging. Very inventive.

The inside lining of a purse, that is what I did with my challenge fabric and won.
Good luck.

If you would make strip's quilt with it you would found out that you have a beautiful quilt.Take the color's that is in this material.Make a sew and flip quilt.You have about four or five differ color's.Give it to charity or make pillow cases.I help in Women and children abuse shelter home.They are glad to get anything that is home made.If you don't want it sent it to me.I will made them something out of it for the home.

That is one ugly FQ. That said, I think I would use it as backing on a small quilt so you don't have to look at it

I agree with someone above use it as a lining in a tote bag or purse. Could app. eyes and nose and make pumpkins for a lap quilt.

Since it is only a fq I wouldn't use it. I made a quilt top using fabric I didn't like, it still hasn't been quilted and is just laying in the quilt room. In fact I'm thinking of finishing it for the dog...........

I am not sure of the size but I would do something that used the circular shapes in the fabric. I would either fussy cut the sections for the old fashioned Clam Shell pattern and mix them into other similar coloured fabrics or use a 60º ruler to make hexagons.

One Block Wonder would be great. You wouldn't even recognize it. It would make awesome flowers, very modern.

I think it is very contemporary. Make a table runner or wall hanging and give it away to someone who has that decor.

My original thought was to use it as your background for a pumpkin tablerunner; but now I wonder how it would look in one of Ricky Tims Convergence quilts.

Many years ago, when i made clothesfor my 5 kids, I had a piece of ugly fabric. I was making my 3rd daughter a dress & knew it neede a little 'something'. I cut a narrow strip from my ugly & stitched it to the bottom of the dress. it was beautiful. I was able to use most of the 'ugly'. Maybe you could use thin strips of your 'ugly' in a med yellow quilt or mug rug!
