Lorreta this is an absolutely fabulous quilt!!!! A real heirloom!! Perhaps you are just tired of it after all the time spent on it?? Perhaps if you put it away for a time....then get it out again you will come to see the special quilt we can see!! Just a suggestion!! You should give yourself a big pat on the back!!

I do see the medallion and the beautiful quilting.It may not be what you had pictured in your minds eye,but it is gorgeous. Maybe try washing and drying it again,it might fluff up and be a little more noticeable. I would love to have a quilt of that beauty and wonderful workmanship on any of my beds. :thumbup: Try taking a pic of it outside, at different times of the day .When you view it from a distance and under different lighting ,I think you will see the medallion in all it beauty.

This quilt deserves to be used. Maybe after you put it away and then get it out again in a few month you will have a whole new appreciation for it.

Loretta, I think it is gorgeous...both front and back.
You could make a colorful bed runner for at the bottom of it. Maybe you just need some color to enhance it. I'm sorry you are not happy with it after spending so much time on it! I even explored whole-cloth quilts after seeing yours! So you are an inspiration. Maybe you've just been looking at it too long. Put is away for a year! After the year is over, you will see the beauty in it! {{{hugs!!}}}
