I agree this is ugly. For me its the colors that make it that way, the pattern itself would not be bad in better colors. I like the idea of cutting it into narrow strips with some prettier fabric. A scrappy strip quilt would totally hide that fabric and is the way I would go. Looking forward to seeing what you decide!

I would make a center block using the colors from the fabric in a small or solid print and then set it with this fabric on point. I am thinking maybe something halloweenish, like a pumpkin or a full moon with a bat. If you make the background a grey or black, it would look very spooky! Then make a treat bag for your favorite kid.

You need a lot more fabric than a FQ to make a OBW. I would cut it up for a scappy quilt - the smaller the squares the better. Then you won't actually see the pattern..just the colors and they are so bad.

I agree with another response -- mix it with some other orange and gold fabrics in a Halloween/fall wall hanging. If you cut it into 2" strips and used it in a log cabin the colors would blend nicely. It's just like kittens and puppies - have you ever seen an ugly one? Have fun with it.

I have made table runner, a table topper and a full size quilt from ugly fabric (as well as pretty fabric) with a block called mom's unwanted block (9 1/2" block) from "Traditional Quiltworks" magazine issue #59. It is cut small enough and combined with one other fabric that seems to cut down on the "ugly" factor. If your interested PM me with your e-mail address and I'll send directions to you.
