I don't suppose her daughter (my neice) will even see what I can see as she doesnt even sew. I am so disppointed.

As a daughter, I would want the quilt just for the fact that my mother had planned to make it for me before she got dementia. It would tell me that I had been in my mother's thoughts. Also, I would definitely appreciated my aunt who went to the trouble of finishing the quilt.
Good job Aunt.

I think it looks awesome. Remember the only perfect quilt is the one in your head.

I am quite sure that having a quilt made by her mom and her aunt will far out weigh any boo-boos! Imagine your niece knowing that one of her mom's last conscious efforts was for her. Dementia is such a heart breaking thing to happen to someone. I'm positive it will be loved whether the seams match or not. Go have a cup of coca, and relax. I will keep your family in my prayers. {HUG}
