I have a couple that I ended up hating.

#1 - A quilt I'd planned to make as a wedding gift for a relative, in her wedding colors. The fabric was expensive, and I'm sorry to say that her color combination (celery green and silver) was just icky to me. It's a long story (too much to go into), but she managed to prove herself as being "not quilt worthy" before the quilt was finished. I ended up giving her something else, and tossed the STILL-unfinished quilt into my UFO pile, where it's been for probably 3 years now.

#2 - A totally scrappy lap quilt that I threw together. I normally like scrappies, but this one is ALL OVER THE PLACE. It's got everything from elegant roses to Spiderman to "dated" 80's fabrics, and there is no actual pattern to it ... just rows of random blocks sewn together. I didn't even make the blocks the same sizes, so nothing lines up. I stuck a price tag on it and took it to some craft fairs along with my regular quilts, and interestingly, it gets a lot of attention. It still hasn't sold, though.
