    It's a quilt...I thought they were supposed to wave so they can be soft and wrap around you! I love Waves!

    Lovely quilt! Non quilters will think that you were so creative to put those ruffles on the sides!

    So true! I have to remind myself to not point out my mistakes when I make a quilt. If we could only learn to keep quiet, no one would ever know about them. haha

    The quilting makes this quilt a beauty! Love the use of your scraps in this pattern.

    Definitely nothing to be ashamed of in that quilt! It is lovely. I love that you got the look of points by using contrasting colors in all the right places. I think it is only noticeable because you have it laid out on the floor. You will probably never have it laid out perfectly on the floor like that again. No one will ever notice when it is in use.
    I know we quilters can be hard on ourselves. I used to have trouble with wavy borders. I don't have that problem since I started using Bonnie Hunter's technique for borders.

    Here is the link to her instructions.
