Ugly quilt
 
2 Attachment(s)
This is the quilt I have been working on for 3 years off and on. This is not my style quilt nor is the fabric what I would choose!! My niece picked out the pattern and fabric when I visited Texas, Sept. 2010. My quilting buddies got so tired of me complaining about it that they said, get it out and finish it!!!! That is what I did, tell me really what you think of it!!!

You did a nice job! Beauty is in the eye of the beholder and each quilt has its beauty and someone will absolutely love it!! It's definitely one-of-a-kind! Great job!

I love the fabrics!!! I don't think it is ugly in the least!!! I am just not trying to be nice either. I think it looks great!! In fact, can you tell me what brand of fabric they are? All from one line?

Your niece will love it! It looks kind of like the Pac Man video game, cute!

I agree! There is no such thing as an ugly quilt! Some are maybe "utility" quilts- used under the pretty ones for warmth. You did great!

I don't think it is ugly at all! However, I do understand how hard it is to work on something where the colours or pattern aren't your favourites! Yay for you for finishing it, your niece will love it!

Very nice. I'm sure your niece will love it. Isn't it great when you finish something that isn't to your own taste?

I understand what it's like to not be inspired by a quilt. Congrats for finishing!
