I think the quilt is darling!! So what if none of the points match? Who will notice (other than you)!

The simple solution is to put a label on the back that says "imperfections are part of the beauty of this quilt." Problem solved!!

LOL
I thought something like "to remind you of Andrew's injury I have included boo-boo"s"

What a kind and generous heart you have!
I think your friend would be so touched by your thoughtfulness!
I think you should give it to her to auction off. I think any money would help towards the medical bills.

Yes, it may not be perfect, I know I have been there many times, every quilt deserves to be loved! People will love it for what it is, most won't know any diffrent. YOur heart is in the right place, people will appreciate you and the quilt for that. I have one that is so so flawed, I still love it and use it! Maybe even more so! Who ever wins that quilt will be so happy to win! Trust me :!:

Put some ties randomly to hide the bigger flaws (use black thread) or you could place some buttons....Use some creativity after all it is the thought that counts. :wink: :wink: :wink: :wink:

I think you are being way to hard on yourself. You did a wonderful and thoughtful thing for your friend and made a really cute quilt that is going to raise lots of money to help her. I'm sure someone is going to love getting that quilt.

I think it looks great.

When I look at the whole quilt picture, I don't see any chopped off points or wonkiness. There is a quilter's rule-of-thumb that goes something like this: "if you can't see the mistake from 50 yds away while riding on a galloping horse, it's not worth fixing".
