so ugly that I may not finish it
 

it is baby quilt size now and so ugly I am not sure I should waste batting and backing fabric to finish it.

don't think it is ugly at all! I like how colorful it is.

I would finish it, sometimes what we see in our mind doesn't always look the same when actually done. USe a sheet or tablecloth for the backing and throw in a poly batting, Practice that FMQ design you have been afraid to try and donate it to the local women's shelter, hospics center, dog sheter (you get my drift) and try something else. If you do not want to finish it sent it to me and I will finish and donate to my guild - our last donations were to a transition home for men who had returned to society after extended stays in the prison system.

Good luck!

I don't see anything wrong with it. If you don't want to give it to someone that it's intended for, then finish it off and keep it for yourself. It'd be nice just to cover with on chilly days.

I am so disappointed. LOL I clicked on this thread expecting to see an ugly quilt, like a fascination for a train wreck ya know, and instead I find a wonderful, fun quilt full of beautiful rich color. It most definitely needs to be finished, but it doesn't need to be you if it won't make you happy to work on it. Maybe take a break from it and work on something else, or pass it along to someone else to finish.

Looks fine. If you don't like it donate to child services for use with children removed from horrible situations.

Ditto this!

It reminds me of my Grandma. Maybe you are too young for it? I'm sure there is a nice lady out there who would love it, but I know how hard it is to finish a quilt you don't like. Maybe there is a place that you can donate just the top to and they will finish it off. Guilds around here do that.

I agree, not ugly at all.

Are you just kidding us, it is not ugly at all!!!!

Finish it. I don't find it ugly at all. Your fabrics are beautiful and I love your pattern. Good luck, hope we get to see a finished picture.

I don't see ugly at all!! It's beautiful and once you finish it you will love it also. I recently made a ugly scrappy and hated the blocks so much. Once I finished the quilt it became my favorite!

To quote an old adage: "Beauty is in the eye of the beholder," and this beholder sees beauty in your quilt.

I love it! Perfect for a baby to sit and play on or for a picnic, not to mention cuddling under!

Ditto, I couldn't have said it better. It's a I am home quilt.

There is nothing ugly about this quilt, please finish it. I feel certain it will make someone very happy and make them feel special. I love the colors...

Where is the ugly quilt?? Don't see one in that picture! That would look great here in our log house, want my address? Please finish it before you send it.

I kind of understand how you feel, sometimes fabric combos just don't grab onto us the way we think they will once we get going. Finish it up, let some time pass and you'll probably come to like it.

this quilt reminds me so much of the scrappy quilts on my bed at my aunt's house... i just LOVED finding the different fabrics and following the 'roads' in all the directions. i don't consider it ugly at all.

That quilt is beautiful! It has all my favorite colors, too. What's not to like?

I don't think it's ugly.....if you don't like it for yourself....finish it & donate it or give it someone who does.

its not ugly finish and donate to charity

It's lovely!! I would be thrilled to have it!

Ditto!!!!!

I'd finish it & hang onto it for someone looking for those beautiful dark rich colors, or as others have suggested...donate it! I personally find it gorgeous!

you all are to kind.I guess it just looks to dark and muttled for me.I like most of the fabric but should have used more lights in it.it really does not thrill me to look at it.it was way better in my head.

My first "creative" quilt I made (after a class to learn how to quilt) was sooo ugly that I had a mixture of pride that I'd done it and shame when my daughters dropped over to visit (I think it was Thanksgiving). I have never had a quilt before or since where people almost came to polite blows because they wanted it "for their children"! It was a giant distorted butterfly on a cheap muslim backing and I used cut out bugs to anchor down the wads of fabric that had developed. You could have blown me over with a feather!

What you see and know about your quilt isn't what others see or think about it. Yours looks fine. Just don't giveit to the quilt police!

It's happened to me a few times. Especially in knitting. I will be working on it and at some point realize I dont' like how it is turning out or have lost interest in even finishing it. If it is a good yarn I will rewind it to use for another project at some other time. If the yarn is inexpensive and easy to come by I have been known to take it off the needles and throw it out!!' It was freeing to begin anew.

If you don't really like it than "put it away" and then you can rethink your fabric choices and start over. Follow your heart and do what you want to do. :)

It would make a great play quilt. Maybe not your typical baby quilt, but still attractive! :)

Looks good to me...

I love it, and I would cheerfully take it off your hands. :)

I could use the practice still on my meandering and strippling.

Someone will love to cuddle up with this. Please finish it.

Ugly, too, is in the eye of the beholder. Keep searching the internet, and you'll find quilts so ugly you'll see how good this one looks!

not that bad, I have a few of those hanging out

Oh this beautiful not ugly at all. Finish it try something new with the quilting process then give to a children's home. They would love it...

WHAT UGLY??? I think it is great!!! You are being too hard on yourself.

I don't think it is ugly either...you might change your mind once it is quilted...worse case scenario is that you donate it..it will still bring happiness and warmth to someone...:-)

I don't think it is ugly at all. Its' a nice scrappy quilt.

Maybe we're not looking at the same quilt, cause this quilt is full of live and wonderful color. I think it is beautiful!

I think it is a very pretty quilt. I looks a lot like one my DMIL made for my oldest son and he loved his quilt.
