My challenge project is complete and here is a look at this fun challenge.
Now I will explain the challenge. Our local quilt guild does a lot of charity quilts and this quilt is for one of the challenges. The challenge started with giving members a 10 inch square of "ugly fabric." Here is the fabric we were given:
It really isn't that ugly! We were to use the fabric plus other fabric of our choice to make a beautiful baby quilt. Here are the fabrics I choose to use in the quilt:
The 2nd, 3rd, and 5th fabric were all on sale for $5 at my local quilt shop. Due to Covid-19, we have only been able to window shop at the quilt shop, then call in and order fabric. Then they will get the order ready, place the order in a cart just outside the front door. I am thankful the store is making such an effort.
The other pieces of fabric were from my stash. The pattern included 9 patches, and square in a square.
The binding was from the pink horse fabric.
There you have it, thanks for stopping by to see my "Ugly Fabric Charity Quilt Challenge" - Judy.

No such thing as an ugly quilt, in my opinion. My grandmother used every bit of fabric she had to make quilts. I think yours turned out great. Thanks for linking up and stay well.
ReplyDeleteI must LOVE ugly because I think this is just the cutest thing ever! I love small quilts and use them throughout my house. And these colors are FUN too! Well done!
ReplyDeleteHello, your baby quilt is beautiful. I love colors and material, they are NOT ugly. Happy Friday, enjoy your weekend!
ReplyDeleteI wouldn't consider that fabric ugly! I have participated in ugly fabric challenges before and the fabric was much 'uglier' than your cute bee fabric! In any case, you created a lovely baby quilt!
ReplyDeleteOh, how could you call that fabric ugly? The little quilt is beautiful, just right for a baby.
ReplyDeleteI think that is cute as can be, and I agree that the "ugly" fabric was not really ugly at all! Perfect quilt for a child!
ReplyDeleteNice job on your Ugly Fabric Challenge quilt! Beauty really is in the eye of the beholder. I think that bumble bee print is SEW cute!!
ReplyDeleteOh that is actually quite cute!! and I kind like that ugly fabric ;-)
ReplyDeleteVery nice charity quilt. Perfect for boy or girl and they will love it!
ReplyDeleteYour “ugly duckling” fabric turned into quite the swan, well done!
ReplyDeleteYour headline make me chuckle. I just told Melva Loves Scraps the letter she shared in her post made me feel melancholy which is a word I only recall using a handful of times. Then I pop over here and get the giggles, I am all over the place today with my emotions. Your quilt turned out lovely, I especially love the fabric you added. Thank you for linking up to Put your foot down.
ReplyDeleteYou pulled those interesting fabrics together into a lovely little quilt!
ReplyDeleteWhat a cute quilt! Those fabrics aren't ugly at all--so very cute. I love Dear Stella and recognize some of them in the mix. Thanks for sharing on Wednesday Wait Loss. Be sure to drop by tomorrow to link up this week!
