Wonderful job for your first quilt! Keep on keeping on!

It is definately going to be a conversation piece. The colors are not 'ghastly' just different. My 5 year old, Bridget, likes it very much.

Thanks for all the comments. I think I am going to send it off to a quilter to quilt it.

pretty colors. For a first quilt I'd say it is beautiful. even if you no longer like it, finish it. Then you can use it for outdoor picnics, let the kids build a tent with it or donate it to a charity. Main thing is you accomplished something and have learned from it. No quilt police here so dont be so hard on yourself. Live and enjoy!

I love this quilt. It has that vintage look that I think is marvelous. You should be proud of your work and finish it.
