No rules for quilting except that it has to hold together when finished.
My first quilt took me about 4 months to piece. My husband and I were care takers for my Mom who couldn't be left alone at the time. I needed something to do! I KNEW NOTHING ABOUT QUILTING! It still seemed like a good idea...
I bought the cheapest fabrics that I liked at Walmart. When the top was done, all I could see were my mistakes. I put it away for a few years, with a few instances of taking it out to see if I wanted to quilt it. Couldn't bring myself to do it!
Finally, I had a friend quilt it. Turns out I love it, and use it fairly frequently. It reminds me of that time with Mom.
Bottom line, if you are emotionally 'done' with it, put it away for awhile or give it away and let someone else finish it. Then move on to those beautiful fabrics!
A secret - I really only quilt as an excuse to buy fabric. That is more true than I let on....
Enjoy yourself with your quilting
