    Don't be too hard on yourself, your points look good (and does it really matter if they are all correct) and so does the quilt in a scrappy kind of way. It doesn't look as bad as you htink- it's just not what you were expecting. The jelly roll that you used just wasn't the one that you should have used. I bet if you tried this with different fabrics, you would love it. and I'm sure that some one will just love the quilt that you just made.

    I think it looks fine. We are our own worst critic. This pattern isn't suppose to match. That's the nice thing about this pattern. Don't be so hard on your self. I personally like it a lot.

    has tried this pattern and can tell me if it worked for them.
    Trade Winds for Bali Pops. First time I used jelly rolls and of course I failed to pick a contrasty enough fabric for the triangle.

    I love it, but then I love scrap quilts. I think you did a great job.

    It's very pretty. We are always hardest on ourselves. What we see as a mistake no one else even notices. You did great!!

    I think it looks just fine! Once it is quilted, you would have to look for errors.
