    I really like it!! The colors are great! It's the perfect top to practice quilting on--and that, too, looks terrific! You sure are having a grand ole time with your new machine! :D

    Your "practice" piece looks pretty good to me! It doesn't matter if you have a little wobble here and there....say they are Character marks...you know the quilt IS 20 yrs. old...and has gathered a few "wrinkles" like the rest of us with age!! :lol: It turned out to be really pretty.

    Janeen - it is LOVELY! The quilting - everything! Since you hate it so much, I will send you my ady - I will be glad to pay the postage!!!!! :wink:

    Seriously - you should be proud of your work - it is super. And, by the way, I truly do like it a lot.

    I think it's super...don't see anything yucky about the colors at all, especially since they are those of my alma mater...Western Michigan University!! Go Broncos!! 8) And your quilting is really great for "practice". Thanks for sharing. :-)

    Janeen: Your quilting looks wonderful and the colors of your quilt are what was so popular 20 or 30 years ago...brown, harvest gold, avacado! In those days, EVERYTHING was one of those colors! Thanks for sharing. Enjoy your quilting machine. It looks like you are a pro! Lovely.

    Not sure why you see it as being ugly.......it's really not. Keep going on your quilting...think you did a great job.
