    try your hand a paper piecing. there is the advantage of perfect points, your blocks come out SQUARE and the patterns are endless. the only disadvantage is that there are no circle patterns except for the illusions of circles.

    It's kind of like a "Red Cross" thing...reminds me of healing and feeling comforted. Either way, i think you did a fantastic job!!!

    Gee, I just love this quilt. It looks very country, which is just my style.
    Hey if you do not want the quilt, I will be glad to take it off of your hands.

    Did you quilt your "ugly quilt" with the machine shown in the picture? If so, what kind of sewing machine is this and how much was it? I have a 45 yo sewing machine and it is limited on what it can do. I'd love a machine that can do quilting without spending thousands of dollars....
    Thx, Nita
    PS I really like your quilt and would not call it ugly! :lol:
