I would put it away for another time, with instructions as to why you started this quilt, pattern, etc., etc., but when things start to go south with my quilting, I put it away for another day (or year or two). It once took me 10 years to make my DH's 25th anniversary quilt, but when it was finished he loved it and I vowed never to make another quilt from the kaliedoscope (sp) pattern - too many bias pieces.
