I have used lots of charm packs for applique. It's much more fun than just sewing the squares together. :D

Isn't is funny that the "ugly" fabric can turn into something really great :!:

that explains why we collect so much fabric and have trouble parting with it.

Some of the ugliest fabrics can turn into a great looking scrappy quilt.

Glad you could use them. I don't have any ugly fabric and I have a huge stash. I use to think Asian, I think that is what it is called, but recently even saw some of that that I like. Guess our tastes changes.
