I also work to a preconceived design- didn't think to do something like this- well done.

It was a real effort for me to do something without preconception. Interesting, but very different results. Despite your departure from your usual work, the fabrics work nicely together and chance has organized them well :)Martha Wolfehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01131812403852060667noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6518882947397100476.post-86878752146498129782013-06-26T15:51:04.242-04:002013-06-26T15:51:04.242-04:00LOL I hope you don't mind if I copy the idea o...LOL I hope you don't mind if I copy the idea of the Ugly Fabric challenge. It sounds like a great way to use those never-quite-fit fabrics and maybe spark some new ideas! Thanks Lisa-Marie :-)<br />Kate Themelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13579923791071127249noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6518882947397100476.post-9171184698775467572013-06-26T14:42:30.101-04:002013-06-26T14:42:30.101-04:00Your story reminds me of myself!

We grabbed the why-did-I-ever-buy-that fabrics from our stash and each made a small quilt. I was surprised by how hard it was to force myself to make the quilt, but I was more surprised by the result. In the end, the quilt was actually appealing, not appalling as I'd presumed. I also discovered one of my ugly fabrics was very versatile. I have since used it for binding in several other pieces. Go figure!Lisa-Marie Sandershttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18276480120148256680noreply@blogger.com
