Whatever you decide, you have to be proud of it, or proud of the effort you put in to make it the best you can do. If by "cheap fabric" you means it's thin or of lesser quality than others you've worked with, perhaps it was distorted by cutting and handling it.

Have you tried putting a dab of Elmer's glue in the center where the seams come together? That helps hold the points (wait for it to dry while you glue others or do other things). I was much happier with my piecing after I learned that trick.

Once I see a mistake and it bugs me, it ALWAYS bugs me. I don't care if it's staying at home, going to charity, or will be a gift. I have to fix it till it pleases me.

And, as for the galloping horse saying, I don't care about the opinion of a rider on a galloping horse. That's silly. I care about how it looks the way most people see it--on their lap or across the room.
