![]() 1833 forum posts 237 photos 1 articles | I think most of us have at least a FQ of 'why did I buy that' fabric. I didn't realise how much I had until I went searching in my stash for something to back a scrap quilt. So I thought we could have a swap/challenge. All you will need is an ugly FQ and a bit of imagination. The rules are simple: Cut your FQ into 4 equal pieces this can be 4 'squares' or 4 strips, it's up to you. Send them to me along with a SSAE. I'll mix them all up and send 4 pieces back to you. I assume you won't mind if you don't get you own ugly fabric back!! You then need to use your imagination to make something using all 4 pieces of fabric, you can add fabric from your stash if you like. If enough people are interested, I'll ask Katy nicely if she will set up a vote and I'll find a small prize for the winner. If anyone has any questions please ask. If you want to join in please leave a post. Alison.
