    OBW is what I was thinking. You never know how they will look. I bet it would be gorgeous.

    If your family hates it I don't think it's a good idea to use it where they have to see it. It's pretty bizarre, no offense!

    If the faces aren't too large, you could make some bags. Do some thread painting on the faces to give them a little more life. :?: :?:

    Put it on a quilt backing or the back of a wall hanging. That can hide it from the family but you will know where it is and can enjoy looking at it! LOL.

    Keep it in a drawer and take it out and pet it now and then?

    It is definitely - different.

    I like this idea. Otherwise, it's a little scary to have hanging around the house!
    :shock:

    Oh, I think a OBW would be good as long as none of the blocks came out all eyes. Those eyes kind of spook me a bit... :shock:
    Interesting fabric... I would have loved it in the 60s! 8-)

    Sorry, but I think that is some of the ugliest fabric I have ever seen.
