Lotsapies, I'm sorry to see you are not happy with the LA job. I have to admit this recently happened to me with my daughters t-shirt quilt for her graduation. In my case, I was very specific with the LA gal and seen prior work. However that didn't help me at all, the job was still messed up and I learned a very valuable lesson.
That is, there are "Professionals", and those that "claim" to be. A professional LA will take pride in the artistic work they are providing. They won't just "get the job done". They want their work to shine as brightly as your work. Anything less is a person that just wants to "get it done", and "get the next one in". The only exception to this rule (in my opinion) are those LA's who are new and tell you that upfront.
I hope your able to fix the quilt to your liking. I'm sure a ton of work went into it.
