If you can make the top and you're satisfied with that, go ahead and quilt it! If someone complains, repossess it! There has only been one perfect person who has ever lived and we are NOT him. I believe absolute perfection is impossible. Quilting is something to be enjoyed and shared. You should do your best, but accept that it may not be perfect. PS: nonquilters won't know the difference. They will be thrilled with the many hours of love you have showered on them! Get busy, Girl!
