Margie -- DO NOT stress over your little quilt -- SEND IT. Believe me, I know how intimidating that first doll quilt is, and it's not worth all your anguish. The fact that you researched a pattern, attempted something new, and put it all together is enough for me. It's a learning process, and should look like one. And don't worry, I would still want to swap with you even if you just sent me two squares of material glued together -- you cared enough to join and you cared enough to make the effort, and that's what counts. Your attempts at having the perfect quilt to send me is embarrassing -- I AM NOT ONE TO JUDGE, and I certainly am not comparing it to anything or anyone else. And just so you're forewarned -- I'm trying something new on the quilt I'm sending you, so don't look at it any closer than about 10 feet.
