Congratulations not only for finishing a UFO, but also for attempting a bargello as a newbie!

That's lovely! I love blue, and think I just used some of that glittery fabric in some placemats. If it's a wall hanging, you probably won't have much trouble with the glitter once it's hung up.

I think it's a gorgeous quilt. If you don't love it, I bet you can easily find someone who does! Blue is the most favorite "favorite color," and lots of folks love glitter, even if you don't.

Please don't take me wrong. I really like the variety of blues and I thought it came together well. I just do not like working with the metallic finish or whatever it is on the surface. It gives visual interest for sure, but feels icky to work with.
