    It's beautiful!!! Love the colors. Sergers are a great tool. You can do alot more on them than I ever thought of.

    I think that your quilt is lovely. The colours are nice and bright. How about using a deep blue or navy to bind the edges and that could 'relax' the quilt a little? Just a suggestion. Everyone else seems to think the gold will make it better. I think that that is a personal choice. Please post when it is finished.

    Do finish it. Quilting adds so much dimension and interest to a quilt. You will end up really liking it. I like it.

    I agree with others - this is a nice start for a good quilt. I would finish it.

    Leave it and finnish it. It looks very nice. Often more then not by the time I am done with a quilt top I am second guessing my color and pattern choice and feel less then optimistic about it. When it gets done I get the enthusiasm back.

    I think you should finish it. Then you can decide if you like it or if you don't. You may find that finished it looks better to you (although I like it as is). If you find you still don't care for it - give it away or raffle it for charity!

    I was going to suggest a dark green or blue binding, personally, I would use a dark green. Then, if you still don't like it, there are charities who take quilt tops because the have volunteer quilters. Hospice is one we have here locally. Just a thought.
