My friend recently asked my opinion on a quilt she had just taken off the mid-arm, wanted to know if she should rip all the quilting out, I picked up the quilt, walked out the front door, called her to come out, told her to "take off running" down the sidewalk and se if it still looked bad to her!!! She just gave me THAT look, IMHO if she added anymore to it would have distracted from the original pattern. I definitely think we're too hard on ourselves.
