Vicki, its not ugly at all. Maybe something with color could be added to the white triangle corners and with the right type of quilting, this could be a very special quilt.

Or get your quilter to create shadow fish with the quilting out in the setting triangles...

I don't thinks its ugly, my son in law would love it.
