I just finished sqaures for a quilt top , a large enough for a full/queen bed. I know just by looking at the sqaures on the wall , I will not like this any better once its done. Its been a long time since I made a quilt I really did not like. I usually use very small pieces for my scrap quilts. This time I used larger pieces as my scrap pile was just getting too large and smaller pieces would not help me to get the pile more manageable in a timely manner.
It seems like a bad idea to put money into the batting and backing that could be used for a more appealing quilt.
This is one of the situations where the tried and true methods should not have been abandoned.. SO my questions is what to you do with the DUDS? Do you finish ? What happened to your DUD?

That had never happened to me before and I was at a loss as to what to do with it. But in the end, I did finish it and I donated it through my church to a family in need. After many weeks, my Pastor took me aside and shared with me that that quilt had become a family treasure that the whole family would snuggle up under on chilly nights. (It went to a young couple with two very small children.)
