    Elvis (well, Green Elvis) is in the house! And so are a great many other uglies. (Um, BTW, Vanuatu Jill, the photo just did not do justice to your fabric. It is beyond words.:-))

    My mailbox has been bursting the past couple of days with all of your (my) fabrics (not to mention notes of encouragement) and I can't wait to see what today's mail brings. When they have all arrived, I will post a picture to show how they are starting to play nicely with each other. And then I will get my rotary cutter ready...

    I will be mailing mine out tomorrow. Had a house full of sick kids, and life just kept happening! Sorry my fabric will be late to the party.

    I'm late in mailing my ugly. Will get it out in a day or so.

    I just got mine in the mail yesterday. It was hiding from me. It sat right on top of a pile of fabric for two weeks, then the day it was supposed to get mailed it disappeared. I tore my house apart for days, apparently it slid off the stack and hid behind the tote the stack was on. I think it was scared of the voodoo ladies.

    I would love to see all the "beauties" laid out together!
    Kind of like an "Ugly Woman Beauty Pageant" line up.

    I realized I didn't put my screen name on/in the package ~ you should have gotten it by now though! I guess a part of me didn't want to claim ownership after all. :)

    Definitely the Debkas fabric - skull are my second

    Call me crazy but I actually like the tie die. Would look great in my 60-70 quilt I want to make - I have the VDUBS pattern and want to do it in 60s and seventies

    Now that's a brilliant idea! Probably perfect for that "muddie". You are so clever! Now I'll think of my own uglies in a new way, too.
