Ugly quilt
 

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!!!

I LOVE it!!! It looks both modern and vintage!! Very kool!!!!

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?

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!

My hat's off to you...finished is such a good feeling. I'm sure it will be love. Now on to something you really love♥

They kind of look like Pac man characters! Your quilting looks fantastic! I'm sure she will love it and aren't you glad it's done?

it's very nicely done.

I really like the quilt, not the colors I would of chosen, but love the quilt it self.

You are a great aunt for finishing it. I know how hard it is to work on something you just don't like. I wouldn't have picked this fabric or pattern but your niece did and I'm sure she will be thrilled that her auntie loves her enough to make her a quilt.

I think you did a great job with what you were given to work with (I agree with you the fabrics and pattern wouldn't have been my choice...at least not together). I'm sure your niece will love it!

Ohhhhhhhhhhh, great modern quilt.

When I first looked at it I thought"wow..she's right" but looking at it longer I do like it, I like the fabric, it seems to fit the quilt. And your curves, wish I could master that!

I think it's unique not ugly. Looking at the close up of the bottom photo sets the design for the rest of the quilt. Very Cool !!!

It turned out very nice ~ congrats on finishing something your heart wasn't in! You did a great job and your niece will love it, I'm sure.

I like it a lot. Looks oriental, not pac man, and I love oriental.

I kinda like it. Well done for persevering(sticking it out)

I agree that it looks modern and vintage at the same time. Not sure how I feel about the contrast, but I have a feeling it will look nice on the bed. To each her own! (I actually like the fabrics in the circles a lot…)

I think it looks like a modern quilt and you did a great job. I agree it is hard to work on a quilt that someone else
picked out and that you do not love. Pat yourself on the back for persevering!

Very nice, kinda has a retro look.

it's not my style, but i can see its beauty.

congrats to you for finishing something you didn't love. i know that was not easy.

It's very unique and looks like a difficult project. It only matters that the recipient likes and I don't see why they wouldn't love it. Congratulations for finishing it.

I love the pattern!!!!!!

It looks very "artsy" to me. The colors aren't ones that I would have chosen either but I'm sure your niece will love it.
You did a great job.

As your signature states, " A quilt is a blanket of love". You have created a blanket of love, and she will love it! I don't mind it at all, and admire you for your perseverance.

I think it's unique, I like the fabrics, I think if the blue would have matched the main fabric you would have liked it better. But really, I like it, it's different. You did a beautiful job with it.

It doesn't matter what we think. What will your niece think?

I love the pattern and the fabrics, but, to be honest, it's kind of busy for me. I have some color challenges, and some colors and entire fabrics 'disappear' in a busy quilt when I look at it, so I truly might be missing something.

(Until I learned that i had color issues, I thought everyone else did (LOL))

What I can see is that the quilting is great!

:wave:

yeah....done!

Must say I agree wholeheartedly....nicely quilted I might add.

It is very unusual, but they are all built with live, which makes them beautiful:)

Reminds me of pacman video game. You did great!

Since she picked it out, I am sure she will be pleased. Glad it is done for you to give it to her. There is a woman in our little quilt group that has finished a GFG and she vows, "never again." Imagine each of us has had one.

I really like it too! Her fabric choice works well with that pattern.

that is very unique one of a kind quilt and I think I like it

looks good to me different pattern!!!
