Wow! You took fabrics I probably never would have chosen for a project and made them lovely!

Before I finished reading your post, I began staring at the quilt trying to find the
ugly fabric. I could not find one. You did a beautiful job disguising the ugly by surrounding it with coordinating colors. Well Done!!

Beauty, indeed, is in the eye of the beholder! Your baby quilt is really gorgeous-nothing ugly about it. Great idea for a guild challenge.

You’ve got a good eye to make this pop ! We should see more projects using “ugly” fabrics.

Beautiful work and I don't see an ugly fabric in sight!

One of my friends told me that I have the humane society of fabric. Maybe so... I also get my pets through there and they've all turned out wonderfully.

I tried to get an ugly table going at my quilt guild one year but I couldn't get many people interested. The thing is one person's ugly is another person's treasure.

Very pretty and unique. Did you create the pattern or purchase it? Can you share where you got it?

Ugly fabric melded into a good design and prettier fabric is a winning finish.
