"Ugly" Fabric Swap/Challenge
#221
Ok I am all for using the same rules and such. I would just need to pick some dates for deadlines. Is everyone ok with that? If we are I will email the lady to post the new dates and such.

Some of us posted pictures when we got our swap package - but the fabric I sent is so darn plug ugly, whoever got it won't even admit it, let alone post a picture If you go through the thread, you'll see some of the fabrics we received - I have fabrics to go with the lovely piece I received, just have to decide on a pattern and put it together - as soon as I finish a couple of other overdue projects. Maybe another week or so ... I'm still thinking about what I want to do with it.
Count me in on another exchange. I will have to start digging to find just the perfect piece.

I too never heard from the poor person who received my "ugly" from the previous exchange. Maybe it was just too ugly and they took it to the nearest trash can. LOL I still have 75% of my creation finished. It is still on the design board. I actually loved the piece of fabric I got.

I will try my hardest this time around to take a picture and label the members name with it and who gets what

Hi all,
Well I didn't get in on the 1st ugly fabric challenge, but as I was reading this thread, I did buy the quilt top that JenniePenny made from the fabric she received as I loved it!! So, I am putting my name in the hat to sign up for the next uf swap if and when there is one!!

Ok Everyone, For the next swap we are going to be using some fabric from my stash that is "ugly" I have five or more yards. I still need to get approval from the site but I will be mailing everyone a fat quarter of this "ugly" and it will be interesting to see everyone's different idea's of the fabric. You will need it to be at least a lap size quilt, only has to be the top and you must use all the "ugly" fabric in the FRONT of the quilt and only use four other fabrics with it. What do you ladies think about this idea?

Melinda, we would all be using the same fabric to make our lap quilts? Then do we exchange them? I am not sure I completely understand? Or would it be like a Boomerang where we all send out ugly fabric and get blocks back! LOL... might be funny!
#229
We all would get the same "ugly fabric" and make a lap size quilt and keep it for ourselves. It wouldn't be a swap it would be more of a challenge. Just to see how we all use the fabric differently. Does that clarify it for you?
