I just finished a top that I really didn't like. There was no satisfaction in it, and I didn't even like putting it on the shelf with the others. I hope this will help me let go if this happens again. I think the difficulty I had was that I'd put so much time into it, it seemed like a waste of that time to leave it unfinished. But now I realize that finishing it just wasted additional time beyond what I'd already invested. It reminded me of a rule my Dad taught me about poker -- never throw good money after bad, (meaning, once you realize you have a bad hand, don't keep betting on it).
