    Your pinwheels look great, colors are great, and once it's been washed and used again, you'll like it too. Sometimes we are just too hard on ourselves. I think you did a great job!

    I am so sorry that you don't like this quilt and that you had so much frustration. I hope this quilt will grow on you. I am just a beginner but I think it looks very homey and comforting and inviting. What a wonderful quilt to cuddle in. With love...

    Considering that it's your 2nd quilt, and it's big, you did a darn good job fmq-ing!I like the piecing and color placement of the top. And it'll make a good camping quilt!

    I love it.. it is very beautiful.. and you are the only one who knows where they are... we do not.. You are too hard on yourself.. unless you are making it to sell then you would have to be more critical.. hehehehehe.. I hope all the fabrics you used have some meaning to you... that is a quilt for a life time.. Great Job..

    I think it looks pretty nice........who cares about a couple of puckers on the back? Love the scrappy look of the front...and the back looks so soft and comfy.....

    Don't look at the puckers, just enjoy the pretty fabrics and design of your quilt. I think it is pretty! Jan

    They are not puckers, they are "Kisses". All of us have had a few of those. Dont stress over it. I love your quilt!

    It's pretty and I like the colors! You are being too hard on yourself. After you've washed it and used it you will feel a lot better about it.

    Love your quilt. So what are a few puckers??? You will enjoy using it and will be better next time. "Finished is better than perfect" is a frequent saying in my group.
    Use it in good health and don't fret. Just don't point out your mistakes and most people wont' even know!!
