Quilts like any other item are a matter of personal taste. I can admire the workmanship on a quilt and not care at all for the choice of color or pattern. I have seen quilts that I thought were beautiful that were poorly constructed and quilted. I learned a long time ago to make what pleases me and forget about the rest of the world. I have done a few commissions, usually T-shirt quilts and I do hand quilting for those who are willing to pay me. Very often I don't care for the finished product because of the fabrics or designs. It is just a way to make a little money to finance my own projects. It is OK to try and perfect your technical skills but respect your efforts. Rome wasn't built in a day. Even less than perfect quilts can keep you warm. You will learn something everytime you start a new project.
