    I think this is how quilting began...using what we have and making it into something useful!!! I think it is great!

    I love it because to me it looks like someone is very resourceful and it's looks warm. I have only seen one ugly quilt in my life and believe me, it was ugly. I think this looks nice and please do not hide it by putting something on top of it. I haven't quilted that long and to me it's very nice. I think someone would be very lucky to be the recepient. Good for you for finishing it. I also like the quilting on it. Please finish it.

    Well I don't think it's really that bad and if you don't want to use it for yourself why don't you make a donation to the animal shelter, they're always looking for, and very thankful for blankets too.

    They can't all be beauties, but some are useful. That dark brownish/gray w/ the lavander/cream leaf can also be found in some of my scrappy quilts. HA

    It is really not that bad (I have made and seen worst) I think that all it needs is a small inner border of red to give your eyes a break and tie it together.

    What's ugly about it?? Was it made with love, or not.
    I assume someone already offered to bind it. I love to bind. If no one claims it, I'll trade you for some really "ugly" fabric.

    I think it is very pretty, and can be used on any table for different things, but if you still don't like it then just send it my way. I will make good use of it on a table.
