OH YES!!! my nightmare quilt was a gift for my new mother-in-law...(of course) everything went wrong- it was an embroidered lone star quilt and even though the embroidered sections on their own are beautiful the lone star sections were *wonky*- nothing went together right...it puffed in places...it is anything but square & flat- and was a nightmare to quilt- but I did get it done & even though I hate it and cringe at the thought of it- hate the thought of her showing it to anyone- she loves it...so, I guess that's what counts. someday I want to make another one like it- and maybe get it right-but that one...OMG what a stressful mess it was= and a Christmas gift...ugh- worst quilt I ever made...I've had a few that didn't turn out quite the way I expected- but that one everything went wrong.
