Pointless quilt
1 Attachment(s)
Hello all,
This is another of my UFO's finished....better done than perfect on this one for sure! I started it a long time ago, in a hurry, inexperienced, and made some bad choices. It lingered in a box for quite a few years.... I am calling it "Pointless to Worry over Troubled Waters" because it has lots of missing points, mismatched seams, and the fabric that looks kind of like watered silk has the watered design going every which way in the blocks.Since it was kind of a hot mess already, I decided to try a scalloped border on it.. Overall, it's ok.... |
The goofs you describe can't be seen in the picture, and I think it's a beautiful quilt!
|
I love it!
|
I think your quilt is gorgeous! I like the pattern and colors. Great job!
|
Beautiful quilt. I can't see any mistakes.
|
No matter how many missing points it has, its still really pretty. Nice finish.
|
looks great
|
Cute quilt and nice addition of the scalloped border!
|
It’s great and more importantly it’s finished! Good job.
|
I think it's lovely, and the scalloped edge looks really nice.
|
beautiul
who is looking for what went wrong but the maker… all I see is how beautiful this quilt is |
That is very attractive. If it needs a home, I'll gladly take it!!
|
Nice finish...I’m sure it feels good to have it done and I’ll bet you learned a few things along the way. Only you will know the mistakes. : )
|
It looks good from here. Think of the lessons you have learned from it.
|
It looks beautiful to me.
|
The picture is great and you see no flaws. I see a beautifully made quilt. Well done

I certainly did learn a few things along the way as you say. I do think anyone who sees it in real life would certainly see the mistakes, but I don't care! I'm glad it's done! Thanks to all for the kind thoughts and compliments! |
I love the name! (the quilt is lovely too)
|
Looks great! Congratulations on getting it finished.

Congrats on a great finish. Nothing like our first quilt to remind us of the progress we have made in our quilting journey.
|
It is really pretty and I love the scalloped border.
|
There were missing points? I really liked the way you placed the light colors in the middle, dark on the sides. It is very interesting the way the small blocks have borders, making them stand out. That is what I first noticed. It is a beautiful quilt.
|
Can’t see any mistakes in the photo! It’s a pretty quilt!
|
That is so pretty!! i love scalloped border. I need to do one soon, it's been much too long.
|
I like the 'every which way' flow. And I think you did a really fine job. I'd be proud if it were mine.
|
I love it!
|
That's a beauty! I love your use of color.
I don't see a thing wrong with it,either. |
Beautiful quilt, the colors are perfect. I wish my mistakes would come out looking this good. Great job.
|
I think it is gorgeous! We are our own worst critics. And think of everything you learned.
|
It is a lovely quilt and finished!!!
|
It seems fine to me. No one else will notice the things you dislike about it.
|
Beautiful. Love the scallops.

Such a beautiful quilt!
|
It doesn't look like a "hot mess" from here. Love that you decided to try something new with the border. You have some good memories with this quilt!
|
I think this is a very interesting pattern. I like your scalloped border as well.
|
Looks great to me. Doesn't it feel wonderful to get a UFO done...especially if it is one you don't really like.

It is a beautiful quilt and I am sure it will be enjoyed by the recipient.

Me thinks, you are your worst critic. I absolutely love this quilt! I see nothing wrong with it. It is prefect in every way. Take a breath and embrace the process and enjoy the warmth of the finished product. Which by the way, is glorious!!!!!
