    If I were voting now, it would be a toss up between the voodoo ladies and the bird poop/spider webs (although I originally thought fungi and mold spores) fabric. They aren't just ugly, but REPULSIVE.

    My ugly fabric does not look too bad at a distance, but as you get closer it gets uglier. It is supposed to be fireflies in the pattern, but they look like bugs with some horrible deformity. I actually used this fabric for the backing on a little boy's quilt. He loved it!

    Cool!!

    "Exploding bug butts" is a perfect description of my fabric! I gues they are meant to be lightening bugs, or fireflies as we Canadians call them.

    Folks, I narrowed it down to three buglies and this is the winner of the bunch. It reminds me of the thorns in Sleeping beauty, so I named it Maleficents Thorns. On the background color , think dried yellow mustard and you've nailed it. :lol:

    Okay, now I agree with cjomomma. That is butt ugly. We had sheets that looked like that as a kid. I though they were ugly too.
