He picked out the pattern and so I started piecing. I've only made 4 blocks and already I am feeling discouraged. I know I have to finish it for the sake of my DB, but I dread every minute I work on it. Has this happened to anyone (dreading the quilt your working on) and do you have any words of encouragement?? :-( :-( :-(
Could you possible use more sashing and bigger boarders to get finished quicker?

As you said, focusing on your brother rather than the quilt may be the way to go.
