Default 35yo UFO Quilt

I am sure we have all had that 'What was I thinking' quilt. This is mine - found tucked away in the back of a cupboard, probably for at least 35 years. It is hand pieced and partially hand quilted. Poly cotton backing and that thick awful batting that was used so many years ago. My first thought was toss it in the garbage, but we are going into a cold winter here so I will finish it and pass it onto a person who can benefit from the warmth it will give. But oh my, look at that crooked border which I hope I can sort of machine quilt into submission. I am happy to say I have improved in all techniques and aspects of quilting since then.

Have you had one of these such quilts that you weren't too proud of?
