I agree with the sentiment already express that just because I may not like the quilt that does not mean that I didn't try my best. For donation quilts I am often using donated fabric so some of them I won't "love" as much as if I had bought the fabric special
I have donated quilts to the homeless shelter as well. They were ugly..like the ugliest thing I have ever made. A neighbor donated the fabric and I didn't want to throw the fabric out. I was told those ugly quilts were snatched right up. There were people very happy to get them. So I have decided that I won't put my own tastes on donations... I just sew and piece the best that I can.
