    I like your quilt and think you should give it. It is unique, not flawed, and made with the best of intentions.

    I agree - your quilt is NOT flawed in the least. You are just very creative, and I think you should give it to the family you intended it to be for.

    I think this quilt is adorable! I do see your issue with the corners but they are perfectly all right, just a choice. Give it to whoever you made it for; they'll love it !

    I did this once. I sent the quilt anyways and sent a nicer one later. That worked out great because the child could drag it around and play with it without worry. Then there was the nice one later to use and save for when the situation called for it.

    I just saw where you were able to upload the picture. How cute it is. YOu are being way to critical of it. I am sure the child and mom will love it.

    If you don't tell them there is anything wrong they will probably never notice it. And even if they do, its your artisitic license to changes things.

    I'd mail it to who you made it for and hopefully the child will love it so much they wear it out. I know the quilts I've made for my granddaughters, starting as babies, I told my son and their mom, this is to be used until it falls apart. Don't just save it. I'll make more! It's made with love, so love sending it.
