Here's my entry.
I call it "Orangutans and Monkeys That Committed Suicide By Leaping From Tall Trees and Splatting In The Snow".
I didn't buy this fabric ... I inherited it along with a bunch of other sewing-related stuff when my Granny passed away last year. Most of the stuff is wonderful, but there are a few pieces of fabric that are ... "interesting" ... to put it nicely. :lol: Apparently my Granny's favorite colors were brown and orange together, because she used those colors in almost everything! :P ;) I have no idea how old the fabric is.
(By the way, I also have this same fabric in purple and pink, but decided the brown and orange was the most hideous! :lol: )

Great choice Moonrise. I'm sure your gramma is laughing right along with us. :thumbup:
Wow...I think we have coordinating fabric, Amazon & Moonrise.
I must be getting tired. The more I look at the O & M Suicide, I think I like it. :shock:

It's hard to say what I like least about this fabric. Maybe it's the smurf blue? The giant size of the paisley? The putrid pink roses?
I didn't even realize I still had this until I started looking through the closet for my ugly entry. I thought I had thrown this away long ago.
