I have gotten so disgusted with a quilt that I have tossed them before finishing. I don't even remember them now but I do know I've thrown more then several away. I know if I kept them I would feel frustrated every time I saw one in a forgotten bag hid in on shelf. It's very therapeutic to just stuff it in a bag and toss in the dumpster. If you feel guilty about throwing it away, remember it's yours you can do what you want with it and not one soul will suffer if you tear it to shreds.
