    I really like this quilt. I think all the colors are great and play well together. You have also done excellent borders.

    I like what you've done with your quilt. Perhaps if you put it aside for a while you'll like it better. I find that if I work on a problem quilt too long I tend to get tired of it.

    I think your scrappy quilt turned out very nice. With adding the borders it looks planned.

    It's a great scrappy! The orange in it really livens this quilt up! Any kid would love it! I pull out my UFO's every few years and fall in love with them all over again! That's the time to add something perky to it and finish it! You did a very nice job on it!!

    I am sorry that you don't like the quilt, but hope you are proud that you finished the project. Frankly, you've used nice bright colors and placed the fabrics so that the center of narrow strips becomes the medallion. Your creative juices with the blocks and placement really looks neat. Perhaps you will be less harsh on yourself later. IMHO you've done a great job! Thanks for sharing.... :-)

    I think your UFO turned out teriffic. The way you added the borders and pieced them, scrappy style, keeping the theme running throughout the quilt is a great achievement. I really like your quilt. It is very balanced and the backing works perfectly with it. get it Done girl!!!!
    peace

    I like the way you used the blacks to frame and "pop" the bright colors. The back fabric is perfect. I'm sorry about your LQS closing. It's happening way too frequently around here also.
