I think it looks great, but I do know what your feeling. If it's given you 'bad karma' so to speak, then do another quilt for your BFF- one that makes you happy. I would either make this into a square table topper- do a few more blocks and that will also give you practice. Or if you really are hating this whole project, finish it up as a triangular matel scraf, or an end table topper. I will remind you that when you top quilt, all 'mistakes' usually disappear, so it's not a wasted project and it will look great no matter how you finish it.
Kind Regards,
