I agree. You worked so hard on this quilt, you deserve to love it totally! Earlier today I ripped out the quilting on a PLACE MAT because I decided I wanted to take out the batting. At the time I wasn't sure if it was worth it, but I think it is. It took me about an hour. So put on a good movie, grab a friend, and start ripping. If you need a break, just log in to quiltingboard for a while! Good luck, and keep us posted.
