I don't suppose her daughter (my neice) will even see what I can see as she doesnt even sew. I am so disppointed.

Take it from someone who lost her mom to dementia long before I lost her physically. Her daughter will love and treasure this. She will not see any "errors" because there really aren't any. What a wonderful gift she is receiving. What a wonderful sister you are :thumbup:

The only thing your niece is going to see is a beautiful quilt made for her by her loving Aunt.

It is cheery in color and I like it as it is. I am sure she will too.

It is beautiful.... don't worry about the small stuff!

it's beautiful.......I heard that the Amish always make a mistake on purpose in their quilts because it is to remind them that we are human and only God is perfect.

A beautiful quilt started with a mother's love and finished with a sister's love...I think it's perfect and I am sure your neice will be so proud to snuggle and surround herself with all that love. What a waste it would have been for it to have remained on a shelf unfinished!

Finish and give it to your niece...I am certain you will get lots of hugs!!!

Very pretty, I agree with others, don't worry about the seams not matching.
It has it's own personality.

I think your niece will love it because her mom started it for her, and because her aunt loved her enough to finish it. Bless you.
