And once you make the decision to take it apart (are resigned to do it) it will go faster than you think. I recently took a lot of (my own) quilting out of a project and once I started, was glad I did it. Then you can move ahead doing it the way you know it should be done. You offered to finish it; it is now YOUR project, so do it the way you think best. Think of it this way: otherwise, it would still be lanquishing in a box somewhere, never to be finished.
Good luck!
