Fugly Scrap Giveaway!

***The Giveaway Is Now Closed***
I am linking up with Lucy in an attempt to rid myself of my fugly scraps with a clear conscience!

Fugly Fabric Party

There is something inherently wrong in throwing away fabric, no matter how truly awful it is, and this little lot has been languishing here far too long.  These are proper fuglies, none of that 'I will never get round to using it' or 'I liked it at the time' nonsense!  A few came from swaps, and are just so 'not me' but mostly pot-luck scrap bag purchases; do not judge me!

I tried to make them look pretty!
If you leave a comment, you are in with a chance of winning, no matter where in the world you are.  If you 'win' I will track you down even if your comment is a blatant 'no thank you!'  Your only escape will be if you are a no-reply blogger!




I have no idea what any of it is, so don't ask; on the flip side, if you can name any of the lines, I really would keep quiet!

I will close the giveaway at 6pm (GMT) Tuesday 14th February.  Call it a twisted Valentine's present!

Disclaimer: I cannot and will not be held responsible in any way, shape or form, for the horrors you may create with these fabrics, or the psychological damage that will be inflicted on the recipient.  You enter this giveaway at your own risk.

  10. I wouldn't turn any of that stuff down, so you an imagine how truly horrible some of the fabric in my stash is.

    ReplyDelete
  11. I think that is the first time I am sooo happy that my stash is very small ^^

    ReplyDelete

    ReplyDelete
  19. You are a hoot!! Why aren't you on twitter?? I am going to take your dare and reply "No, thank you." I am a terrible liar!!

    ReplyDelete
  20. Too funny! I actually like a lot of them - oh dear! Jxo

    ReplyDelete

    ReplyDelete
  22. There are a few in there that aren't that bad!

    ReplyDelete
  23. Ahh, some of them aren't that bad.

    ReplyDelete
  24. Ah I have some of this fabric on my Fugly Fabric...!

    ReplyDelete
  25. Despite my deep reservations on what fugli means to anybody, I will enter this giveaway.
    Perhaps if I win, and they are fuglis to me as well, I can pass them on to a 4-H leader I know who surely knows what fugli is.

  26. You have beautiful scraps! I especially love the second to the last picture. Somebody's gonna be one lucky winner! Thanks for the chance.

    ReplyDelete
  27. I love the one with the purple/dark lilac background and the 'leaf design' Call me weird if you like! xx

    ReplyDelete
  28. too funny, I see a charm square that I included in a swap in that lot!

    ReplyDelete
  29. count me in.... I wouldn't mind some of those at all. Mixed in with the right other fabrics I think they could be cute.

    ReplyDelete
  30. They're not so bad - I think I could use a fair bit of it!

    ReplyDelete
  31. Please please hunt me down! I'd love to get all those charms.

    ReplyDelete
  32. I actually LIKE some of those! What does that say about ME? I don't think there is any such thing as an ugly fabric. Put it in the right setting and it is okay. Well, there may be some uglies out there....

    ReplyDelete
  33. I guess that beauty is really in the eye of the beholder... I've rarely *ever* met a fabric that I didn't like... and I tend to always pull for the underdog, so maybe that explains something... LOL Anyway, I do a good bit of applique, and those... let's say *unusual*... fabrics sometimes are PERFECT for a small piece of a design! Thank you for sharing your scrap bag with us! :-)

    ReplyDelete
  34. Thanks for making me love! Please dont judge me but I really want that rainbow charm pack!!!

    ReplyDelete

  35. I think most of it is pretty cute! I'd take it no problem!

    ReplyDelete
  36. How your post made me giggle. I love the second enlarged picture fabrics i could see myself making something quite nice with these.
    Check mine out for a real fugly http://ibescheraldine.blogspot.com/p/fugly-fabrics.html

  37. ok im ashamed now to admit I like quite a few of them :) my daughter loved the bottom ones and wants to make another dolly quilt with them, *she's 4* :)

    ReplyDelete
  38. You're right-they're Fugly. You dare track me down, and I'll send full on fuglies your way. I'm serious

    ReplyDelete
  39. I actually quite like pack 3, and pack 2 has some possibilities (not quite sure what though) but pack 1 I have to agree with the fugly status!

    ReplyDelete
  40. Pot-luck scrap bags! Don't believe you. You are right though - totally fugly. Pick someone else to off-load them onto! ;)

    ReplyDelete
  41. Too funny! My eyes are streaming from my cold but they definately look a bit dodgy... although I did hop over to Cherie's and her fabrics are giving you a run for your money! (No offence Cherie!) xx

    ReplyDelete
  42. Oh, they are great ! Really not fugly

    ReplyDelete
  43. wow - love the second pile - I'm sure I could put them to good use !

    ReplyDelete
  44. I think that those fabrics belong in a Bonnie Hunter style quilt. As she says, "If the fabric is still ugly, you didn't cut it small enough!"

    ReplyDelete
  45. I like the purple leaf charm but I think you can include it with the others for someone else! Lovely fuglies!

    ReplyDelete
  46. Funny! My Husband is going to be wondering abuot me - laughing out loud upstairs at the computer - he'll be checking my history!
    Actually I do like those prints. Maybe it's me who is a bit twisted ... I have been having some strange cravings lately and watering at the mouth about those All Beef Hotdogs on TV. But we could be a match made in Heaven - your fuglies and me. :0
    I promise to use them to the best of my ability - To make them as cute and pretty as possible - And treat them with utmost love and respect! Cross my heart! X

  47. You are too funny! i'll enter, these might help all some variety to the postage stamp quilt I'm making :)

    ReplyDelete
  48. I like some of those, I'd happily take them off your hands.

    ReplyDelete
  49. I never turn down free fabric. I always find a use for it.

    ReplyDelete
  50. It's lovely. Not fugly at all! :)

    ReplyDelete
  51. Some are OK, and some might look great cut into teeny tiny squares and sewn togehter so you can't tell what it is ;)

    Don't like the spider one though, or the weird one that looks like balls of string- bleurgh!

    ReplyDelete
  52. Oh, little pieces of fabric are always great for making picnic quilts.
    Free fabric is always a plus!

    ReplyDelete
  53. One lady's fugly is another lady's quilt block! Ha! Actually not ashamed to admit that I like a few of them!

    ReplyDelete
  54. I actually like a lot of these! They would be great for applique.

    ReplyDelete
  55. fugly fabric? bring it on!

    ReplyDelete
  56. To quote Bonnie Hunter, if a fabric is still (f)ugly, you just haven't cut it small enough! I can envision uses for these...

    ReplyDelete
  57. I am willing to take the risk to give your fuglies a new home.

    ReplyDelete
  58. I think with all the fugly fabric around, we need to do a fugly make party! Show us what you make with the fugly!

    ReplyDelete
  59. One person's fugly might not be another's. I like the oranges.

    ReplyDelete
  60. Too funny! I like some of those quite a bit (okay, stop looking at me like that...NOW who's judging, huh??). Please put my name in the hat :)

    ReplyDelete
  61. WEll, I think that Bundle #2 is NOT ugly. =) Thanks for a chance to win.

    ReplyDelete
  64. The fabric is terrific! I make prayer quilts for our church ministry and would love to use the fabric in the quilts! Thanks for the giveaway!

    ReplyDelete
  65. I would love to take the pink/brown fabrics!! I love that combination. I have had fabric that I would consider more fugly than yours in my stash at one point (when I first started patchwork/quilting, they were someone's scraps!)

    ReplyDelete
  66. These are certainly interesting fuglies. I know I would put them to good use somehow . I actually think they are interesting and would love to own the, thanks for the opportunity.

    ReplyDelete

  75. Those are totally not the fugliest scraps ever.

    ReplyDelete
  76. In fact I quite like the second set. The pale pinks have a nice effect.Would love to have all of them.We don't get designer fabrics in India yet...

    ReplyDelete
  77. Individually I think some of them have potential & I like to use scraps and charm squares for Appliqué in my hand embroidery so I would love to try and give them a home. Call me a sucker for a challenge.
