Oh Goodness sake.. it will be a wonderful quilt for someone that doesn't have any quilt at all.. When the tornado swept through Joplin and left us without any blankets at all, I picked up one that had blown out of our hospital I think (because it is a green cotton blanket like they had there) and washed it.. That's what we had. Talk about ugly, a hospital blanket picked up out of the mud and debris is the perfect description of ugly.. I would have cried with joy if someone would have handed me your ugly quilt. (Don't worry, a friend came and took us home to their house so we were okay, but I still have that hospital blanket on our bed.) Finish up the quilt, if you still think it's ugly donate it to the next disaster that hits our nation. I think it's beautiful and someone will be so grateful to have it that you have no idea. It's all a matter of perspective.
