I have been doing this for years and I'm still learning. I don't think it is ugly. I think I would put a border of maybe 3 stripes different colors or 2 colors. You neglected to contrast it enough. I do that often. I think we forget to pick one busy print and maybe a solid to bring it out. I would finish it and use it if it was mine. If you really hate it, like they said, give it to someone where you won't see it again. To someone who don't have much that would be a real treasure. I try to surround myself with stuff I LOVE, not tolerate. Chalk it up to a lesson learned, that's what I try to do. I have even used some of the same fabrics with a redo to make it come out more like I wanted. It's all good. You do good work.
