Ugly Fabric Challenge


Stashbuster has started an ugly fabric challenge. What constitutes an ugly fabric? Perhaps something you don't like or something that is hard to work with due to its pattern or color. I found two in my cabinet that probably fit this category. One is a teal, black and white which I don't perceive as ugly but is difficult to work with because of its diagonal design. The other is a tan small print that I've never cared much for. Both of these fabrics were given to me. I guess I have hung onto them in hopes that I could use them someday. Is that someday here? Maybe. I can't see myself using the diagonal print in a quilt top but it may work as a backing. Now to see what will work with the small leafy print. I found a black floral and some teal which matches the little teal splotches in the print. These have some potential.
