Have you ever had a day where everything you do just turns into a mess, and then when you try to fix it, that doesn't turn out well either. I did this quilt as a little quickie for my nieces birthday, but I made one mistake after another turning the whole thing into ONE HUGE MESS! I have figured out where I went wrong and how to fix each problem....but right now I can't even look at the quilt and all I want to do this throw the thing in the garbage! ARGH!!!!....ok just neede to vent.

I love the colors. I think the decorative stitches around the blocks is a nice touch. Your niece will love it! And yes, I've had more of those days/projects than I like to think about.

I've had those days as well. That's when it is time to stop quilting and have a glass of wine. Honestly though, the quilt is beautiful and your niece will love it.

P.S. That line of fabrics is one of my fabrics. I have a couple of small projects made out of it. :-)

It is a beautiful quilt. It has had a few bumps on the way but nothing you can't fix. Finish it. She will love it.

I love your quilt and I am sure your niece will as well.

It is beautiful !! Don't give up now, the hard part is over. She will love it and if you don't get it 100% in your eyes, just remember that in her eyes it will be nothing less than perfect. It was made with love and there is no better gift to receive. RELAX !!!!!

i think it is beautiful what's wrong with it? I'm having one of those days myself

Take a deep breath, shut the sewing room door and have a glass of wine!! You should be able to continue safely in about an hour (or whenever the wine has calmed you down)!!! :-) :-)

Yes, we have all had days like this! But--this is a fabulous quilt and your niece is going to love it. Put it aside for a day or two and then you can come back to it with renewed enthusiasm.

I think your quilt is beautiful. Give it with pride your niece will love it.
