My advice was going to be the opposite of Carol's and I will still give it and you can decide which suits you personally.
If you decide a project isn't working for you in the middle, give it away, throw it away, donate it. Don't force yourself to finish something that just isn't working for you.
The other advice is THERE IS NO "QUILT POLICE". Do it your way, be proud of it and ignore anyone who tells you differently.
