It's just like the old saying about one mans (or womans) trash is anothers treasure. What one of us thinks is ugly, someone else is gonna love it. I think it's pretty also, but I've got enough stray (not 100% cotton) fabric I need to part with. One day I will get it posted.

You won't believe this but someone snatched this baby up. Not what I was expecting. I just wanted to show you all this ugly. Thank you all for looking at it.

You know that piece that only God knows where it came from, as if your fabric's are mating and this is what happened. Are you willing to show it to me. I will show you mine.
This is a piece of knit material in blue and yellow. I would love to give it away but am afraid no one will want it either. The salvage says Wamsutta Knitting mills. I have no idea how old this is or where it came from because I don't like knit.
Here is mine now show me yours. I promise I won't laugh if you happen to like it. But be honest about it.
One man's trash is another mans treasure. I love that and it if weren't a knit I would send you my address LOL.

I may have to go thru my stash and see what other uglies (to me) that I can find.

Crafty bear. I can't change the subject line here because this wasn't something I was trying to sell or even give away. That is why I posted it in the the picture section. Somebody taking it off my hands was just an unexpected surprise. I was just trying to start a topic for others to show what they considered to be thier uglies.

If admin or one of the moderators wants to delete this topic You will have my blessings. Thank you, Carrie

I don't think she meant for this thread to be a sale. She wants us to show our 'UGLY' fabrics.

Actually, I think I might like it. How about putting it in the classifieds so we can get a chance at it?
