Several times I've worked on a quilt that I just wasn't having a good time with or that I didn't particularly like. But with just the right border, adding a sliver of flat welt, or in one case I took the blocks apart and added sashing, every one of them turned out beautiful! And if that still doesn't do it for you, the quilting will certainly do it! I've been with a weekly hand quilting group for 20+ years and never cease to be amazed at someone's beautiful quilts we finish that began humble and homely!
Your minis will make some gorgeous mug rugs!
