    Hey, I deliberately bought it on a 75% off sale, knowing it would make a good transformer. The saleslady who cut it was pretty curious about what I had planned -- she knows I usually favor much prettier lines.

    It's not the best quality fabric, and it was the end of bolt, with all wrinkled mess that can sometimes be, so the repeats don't all line up as well as one could wish. But I think the end result will be fun.

    I almost wish I had more so I could use the original on the backing.
