Suggestions for ugly fabrics...

1. Cut it up - if it's still ugly, cut it smaller.
2. Use it for backing
3. Line the inside of a totebag
4. Sell it on the forum - someone is going to love it!
5. Give it away.

cjomamma, I think you are trying really hard to not be the winner. LOL Unless it is ugly in person I kind of like it.

I love the tied t-shirt piece, and agree the other poor pieces are ugly!
