I gave my daughter a project that I had started and wasn't happy with it. She finished it and I LOVED it!! I was so mad!! I wanted it back!!! So, stick with it and maybe you'll love it. Another quilt I made I was unhappy with and just didn't care for it and my girlfriends "kidnapped" it and had it machine quilted for me and it turned out better than I could have imagined! There was also a quilt that I hated making, it was just not fun and I made a lot of stupid mistakes and was tempted to quit, but I finished it and it is my friend's favorite quilt, so I'm going to quilt it and give it to her for Christmas (some year!) So, don't give up! I've made 3 scrappy purple quilts and they turned out just gorgeous.
