Don't you dare rip it! We all have quilts in our past that we aren't proud of, but we live with them. I have several from my days as a beginner and I call them my "Keep Me Humble Quilts" - in case I every get a big head or think too much of myself and my skill:>)
I store these quilts in a closet where I keep toys and books for grandkids visits. They know the story of Nana's Keep Me Humble Quilts and when they're camping under the dining room table, watching TV, or just cuddling up on the sofa -they make a B-line for the closet to get the quilts. This is the second generation of these quilts (their parents grew up with them too.
They've held up very well, a little faded, but stitches still intact.
That meandering quilt could end up being the best loved quilt you've ever made. If you don't want it to be seen, keep it at your house and let your grandson make friends with it in his own way,
