The beauty is in the eyes of the beholder. I don't think its all that bad. I have one like that too. SO you're not alone. I just laugh at mine and know the next one around will be better. I stretched my blocks and it is a scream.

Leah,

Always hang on to this quilt. It will be a good reminder just how far you have come as a quilter.

What's not to love??? It is a Care Bear quilt. My daughter would have loved it to pieces.

Your 1st quilt has so much love to show in it, and that is all that matters. It was well-used and loved...and to me, that's the point.

Congratulations on yr upcoming bundle of joy!

But the most important line in your message was: My daughter loved it. Yep, she did, she didn't see the mistakes you see now, she just felt the love in it.

Amen to that. This is what its all about,not perfection. Congratulations on your new arrival, and on your first quilt.
