    Very pretty and don't worry about your mistakes. A year from now you will have trouble finding them and right now you are the only one that knows where the mistakes are.

    I'm not a decorator (you should see the other rooms, which are minimally decorated, if that)...but I do like those soft greens, and tend to use various combinations of them in most of the rooms of my house.

    Also, it was the first major quilt I started but have finished a number of smaller quilts during this past year and a half. As you all know, we get tired of working on the same project (or frustrated at the number of re-dos), set it aside for awhile, and then come back to it when we think we can stand looking at it again.

    I think this is a good example of how the crinkly look hides the flaws...but I actually do love it, regardless of whether the points match, the quilting lines are straight, etc. Color and design are much more important than quality of workmanship(unless you're entering it for judging, of course).
    when i made my Tennessee waltz quilt, i was bummed about the matching part( they mostly didnt) until i saw E. Burns program on that pattern. they showed closeups of the quilts and guess what? not all of them matched up either! Made me feel sooo much better! :)
