Name of quilt: headache! :? The colours - oh my what was I thinking? I tried Ricky Tims convergence technique with all my own dyed material (probably where the problem started with the choice of colours). Oh well, again will notch this one up to experience! I certainly prefer the back of this quilt. This was a solid piece of fabric - can't take any credit here! :lol:

I like it and think the colors are great

Iluv2quilt 12-13-2010 09:30 PM

I really LOVE this, I'd be more than happy to own it, you did a great job of the convergence and your hand dyed work is beautiful!! :thumbup:

GwynR 12-13-2010 09:32 PM

I love the colors!

I'm sure some folks will think it is beautiful, even if its "mother" doesn't!
(That back fabric would be an interesting one to use as a quilting design along the curves, ignoring the front.)

Kitsapquilter 12-13-2010 09:35 PM

It is all in the eye of the beholder. It is not ugly by all means!! I think it looks very nice. I do love the backing fabric but the front looks great as well. Don't put yourself down!!!

marilynr 12-13-2010 09:44 PM

I think the front is awesome! How could you not love it?

wolfkitty 12-13-2010 09:46 PM

I agree with the others - I like your quilt and the fabrics! I rather like the colors. I seemed to have gone to liking these colors of late.

Lynnie25 12-13-2010 09:48 PM

Love the front and back of this quilt. I think you should change the name of your topic to 'my most challenging quilt for 2010' because it is far from ugly. We can be so hard on ourselves sometimes can't we !

I actually think it is really nice. I would love to be able to make something like that. Great job!

medots 12-13-2010 10:04 PM

I have a home for that, My daugater would just love that thanks for showing it

charismah 12-13-2010 10:06 PM

connie_1936 12-13-2010 10:08 PM

woops. meant LOVE

craftyone27 12-13-2010 10:10 PM

I really like it! I think maybe you have just tired of looking at it - put it away for a while. Later take it out and look at it again with fresh eyes. You will probably find that you like it again. If not I will PM you w/my address and it can live with me-LOL JK!!

Pickles 12-13-2010 10:11 PM

I personal think thats it right down pretty , front and back, don't see anything wrong with it and the colors are very coming to it :D :thumbup:

CoyoteQuilts 12-13-2010 10:33 PM

Oh no! That is very beautiful!

Sadiemae 12-13-2010 10:41 PM

I love the front!

Jim 12-13-2010 11:16 PM

If thats the ugliest quilt of 2010...the nicest one would have to win blue ribbons...I think that one is fantastic...the colors, the pattern and the design on it.

miss_ticky2 12-13-2010 11:23 PM

Ugly?? I must be looking at a different quilt to you because I see a lovely quilt

Annaquilts 12-13-2010 11:28 PM

I love it.

bluekrissyspikes 12-13-2010 11:39 PM

i think it's awesome!! i love the design and the colours work great together. i really like seeing something new and different. i think it would be perfect for any teen or young person. maybe it just doesn't fit with your decor or something? it's probably one of the 'cooler'ones i've seen in a while

kwiltkrazy 12-14-2010 12:27 AM

I love it front and back.

Ramona Byrd 12-14-2010 12:33 AM

Hey, that's pretty and I love the choice of colors. They are bright and cheerful and will be loved by anyone who is lucky enough to get it as a gift.

mom-6 12-14-2010 12:54 AM

What's not to like about your beautiful quilt!
You may be sick and tired of it, but it is downright gorgeous!

deema 12-14-2010 01:10 AM

Oh I think its beautiful! Go ahead and send it to me...I'll get rid of that headache for ya!

Ugly? Send it to me then. I think it is absoluteely beautiful. I bought the book, but it scares me so I just pore over it and dream. :)

pjustice63 12-14-2010 03:28 AM

Sorry you are unhappy with it. If this is the ugliest, I'd like to see the prettiest because I like it and love the colors.

Maiziedo 12-14-2010 03:42 AM

I don't know about anyone else, but I love it. I love bright colors and I think this is stunning!

raptureready 12-14-2010 03:44 AM

We should all make such ugly quilts! Ugly? Are you serious? I think it's beautiful both on the front and the back! I love the dyed fabrics, colors and the patterns used.

Shelbie 12-14-2010 03:48 AM

It's a beautiful quilt. Put it away for awhile and if you still hate it when you take another look, ship it north to Canada! We're in the middle of a huge snow storm, school buses are cancelled and many roads are closed. Another quilt would be welcomed!

sttchr 12-14-2010 03:49 AM

Looks good to me

ann clare 12-14-2010 04:29 AM

I think that it is beautiful.

ann clare 12-14-2010 04:29 AM

I think that it is beautiful.

Rebecca VLQ 12-14-2010 04:51 AM

Yup, very awesome. I'm interested in the technique for dyeing it...it looks FABULOUS.

mommamac 12-14-2010 04:56 AM

I think you sent the wrong pictures - this one can be the 'ugly' quilt you're talking about...

diannemc 12-14-2010 05:08 AM

I don't see anything ugly about this quilt!!!

Chickerson 12-14-2010 05:17 AM

I don't think this is ugly - I really like the color choices and appreciate the time and talent it took. Every quilt is filled with love.
Blessings bunches

mygirl66 12-14-2010 05:21 AM

what are you talking about? I love it!

queenpola 12-14-2010 05:50 AM

Nothing of an ugly quilt.......seriously.
I love the colors, really think it has a good combination of brights.
