I never concern myself with wether a quilt will be liked or not. I am not responsible for other peoples feelings towards my work.

I don't believe I was ment to be permanently atached to my quilts. My love and enjoyment is in the making of the quilt, not what happens to it one month from nowor five years in the future.

If one of my quilts has kept a dog warm, my job is done!

I really like your way of thinking. Sometimes I do worry that the person I am making a quilt for will not like it, but so far everyone seems to like what I made for them (at least they say they do. ha ha) From now on I am going to adopt your attitude - because it is a good one!
