Should have read the small print!

I'd been on the look out for some newsprint fabric.  Found some on Etsy but it was a full yard, so I went looking on Ebay and came across a fat quarter.  Fab, until when it arrived this morning and I spotted this amongst the lettering...,


not quite the statement I'm looking to make in my work!

    Not funny, I would be bothered also. This is not what we're all looking for!

    I always enjoy your posts!

    That's really cute and funny! Hopefully you can cut that part out and still use the fabric for your project?! You always know how to make me laugh. Thanks!

    At least you noticed it now and not when it had been used to make something, that could have been a bit embarassing xx

    This is so funny! I bought a fat quarter of this two, but I haven't noticed if it's got "that" on it! I can check and if it is rude word free, we could swap?

    I bought this too... didn't realise one of my lavender hearts said 'prostitutes' & 'sexual persuits' on the back until after I'd finished it...OOPS! Think I'd better keep that one! x

    I bought this fabric a while ago too. I have not used it yet either. Maybe it would be suitable on the underside of a Vixen? Or a cat?
