    Hey Darlene loves Choclate___
    Is your fabric a stripe? If it is that was my contribution. I would love to see what you do with it. I have more of it and have not been able to come up with an idea for it. Someone on board is making squares with stripes, I may try that later in the Summer. To much going on now.

    OK, quilters, here is my quilt top made with the 'ugly' I received - brown wavy stripes. I had two alphabet fabrics that had all the right colors, plus some some small pieces of blue.

    The size is 40 x 42.

    Very pretty, I have some of the alphabet fabric, but no cute blocks! I made an Apron for my Granddaughter for pre-school out of the alphabet fabric. I like what you have done with your "ugly" great match!

    Ladies, Oh my goodness you all are so very skilled. Also those "sizes" were just suggestions but honestly you ladies can make anything with your "uglies". If you haven't recieved yours please let me know.

    Hi Marytoddliz,
    Does your granddaughter need a nap quilt to match her apron? I have no idea what to do with it!

    Loving the wonderful projects everyone is coming up with for their uglies. Im still searching for a border for my ugly pies.. .. Will post once I decide and finish it off. Right now Im leaning towards a brown a lil darker than the crust on the pies. Have a wonderful quilting day ladies.

    I have received mine and I love it. It is a nice vintage stripe with rose colored flowers and a green stripe. I think I have enough in my stash to work with. It will take me a little longer than some of you all. WOW you guys are really on it! I have work to deal with and yardwork, you know the drill. I'll post when I get something finished.
