I am fairly new to quilting and have decided that I learn something new with each quilt. For example, if I EVER do a Trip around the World pattern again, I will make my squares more than 2 1/2 inches. I have made mistakes on every quilt.
Perhaps, after you finish this quilt and take a break, all will seem better. BUT if you aren't enjoying any of the process....take a longer break before you make any big decisions.
We are on your side....wish we were all closer to you and could visit...
