I'm giving away some horrid fabric!

I was browsing an opshop the other day and came across what I think, is some very hidious fabric.... and then I bought it! What made me do this you may ask? Well.. I just thought that maybe somebody, anybody, might just like it! So here it is.. in all it's ugliness......
Who wants it?
When I first grabbed it, it looked like terry towelling through the plastic bag, but when I opened it at home, I discovered it was good ol' corduroy!

So, this awful piece of fabric has now become my giveaway. Mention in a comment what you would do with it.. and I'll pick the best one. If nobody has any use for it, I'll be dumping it! I can't stand the sight of it anymore!
Oh yes, it measures approximately 100cm x 30cm

and while you're at it.. take a look at this fab "girls dress patterns" giveaway!

Cheers, Raewyn

  1. Hi Raewyn...this fabric is quite quirky....if I won this fabric, I would do two things with it....as I have a lime green quilt cover, I would make a cushion for my bedroom.....and with the remaining scraps I would use it in some art work...my be a collage or something!

  2. Hi Raewyn, Hmmm, It's quite nice in an ugly kind of way. But I have no idea what I would do with it so I am out of the draw, tehehehe.

  3. Well I would make James a pair of bootleg trousers for next winter and if there's enough left over I would make him a bag to keep his plastic bugs in because those lines remind me of a spider's web. The colours are quite funky and retro.
