Well, my sister would love your quilt. She is a very earth tones type person.
I have had many occasions where my final product was disappointingly different (and sometimes fantastically more) than my vision. I also pass on those 'small errors in judgement' to our guild's community quilts program. And I too, have been amazed at the quilted and bound 'silk purses' that have come from my 'pig's ears' donations.
I hope that I learn something from every top that I make. Even if I have a negative experience, it still contributes to my quilting journey.
