the biggest problem with group quilts is the currently popular philosophy that "finished is better than perfect."
true enough that "perfect" is an unrealistic standard or expectation.
but - and i won't apologize for believing this - finished slop is not better than getting as close to excellent as humanly possible.

unless every person working on the quilt has the same standards and actually cares whether or not those standards are met the result with almost certainly be a hot mess. the only questions are (1) how many will realize that and (2) how many others won't care about that.
