I don't see a thing wrong with it..I think it's lovely.

I like it. When I think I've done a bad job my daughter will hold it up and shake it. "Can you see it now, mom?" She then tells me that I need to hang it on a fence and drive by at 20 mph and see if I can see the mistakes. If I can then redo it, if not forget it. The answer is always no, I can't see the mistake(s). So hang it on a fence and drive by 20 mph and then look. Stop being so hard on yourself, it is a beautiful quilt and a great job.

My mother always told me I was my own worst critic and she was right.

It is a great quilt. Tilted backing... Artistic license. I actually like it tilted. It is a great quilt

your pictures don't show your issues

some timed we are hardest on our selves

l guess the question is did you learn anything from making this quilt.

OK, first I don't think you pictured the quilt you are talking about. I studied and studied the pics and did not see different size orange squares or sashing that didn't line up.
Second, even if I could spot these things it was your SECOND quilt. SECOND, as in you hand ONE whole other quilt under your belt. I think on a second quilt if your only problems are a crooked sashing and not perfectly aligned back you are doing pretty darn good!

I think it's beautiful in the pics. Guess I am missing it to.
I like it!
