I can never really "see" a finished quilt until it is finished. So I finish them. If I don't care for it, someone will like it and I can surprise them with a quilt gift. I recently did a Christmas quilt that I really disliked-it was so boring and blah but my LAQ used a sparkled thread and when I got it back I loved it! I always finished them. Well except for a Cathedral window I started decades ago. I finally cut a piece out of it, framed it and hung it in my office. I get so many complements on it. Glad I didn't throw it out.
