In my opinion... Your work has a tremendous amount of character. You have forged ahead with your creation without fear, proven by wonderful and unique results. Quilting rules can be just guidelines, after all. The pieced dog is like a caricature of the photo, cute. And the STAR! Oh my, it's wonkiness would go great in my kitchen, very "homespun". Being super-sensitive to your errors always has bad results, so my advice is turn from that and move forward. Good job. Love it!
