I do not know what to think about this quilt. I, both like it and don't. It was made with a 'Poppy Celebration' fabric line, jelly roll. For the longest time I did not know what to do with it. Wish that there were more of some colors and less of others but wanted to use it up.
Would love to hear some honest opinions to help me make the decision as to if I should attempt to quilt it or not.
thank you.

It's a nice quilt. But I totally understand if you just don't like it enough to quilt it. I have made several tops that I have donated to my Guild's Community Quilts group to finish off and donate. Nothing wrong with them, they aren't ugly or old just not my style. If you don't have an objection to quilting it, a finished quilt is always appreciated by someone.

I like it just the way it is - it would be a wonderful kidney comforter or sunshine quilt - if you seriously do not want it I will pay for the postage to mail it to me - it seems we never have enough charity quilts - I broke my shoulder the end of May and I am far behind on my donations!

I think it's lovely, but if you really don't care for it, it's your time and it's a lot of time and effort to spend looking at something that you don't care for when you could be working on something that makes you smile.
If you belong to a guild or have one in your area, they'd love to have it for their charity programme.

I really like it and would definitely suggest you quilt it!! Sometimes if we're not sure about a piece, the quilting makes or breaks it. If you don't like it, give it away! Mistakes are merely design opportunities! ;-)
