    My husband fusses at me because I always point out the flaws in my work! He says that whoever is receiving this quilt will only see the hard work and love you put into it! And, personally, I think it's beautiful! That was quite a project for a beginner!! I know longtime quilters who stay away from flying geese! Good job!

    I rather like it! I think it will be pretty quilted. If you still don't like it, just chalk it up as a great practice and learning piece. You can use it to learn how to hand quilt or free motion quilt. But still, I like it.

    I certainly would not call it ghastly! I believe it looks exactly like what they are now calling "modern quilting", which is supposedly more contemporary in design.

    I'm with ya on the flying geese though... I can't stand making those little buggers!!

    Seems we are all our own worse critic. This is a beautiful quilt with lots of different colors. You did great.

    I love it! It looks great. I like that it isn;t "perfect", which I probably wouldn't have noticed if you hadn't said something.

    I don't think it is ghastly. If you don't want to finish it, just send it to me, and I will finish it for my bed. I like it very much.

    Wow, I love all your fabric choices and it's a great pattern. I think you did a beautiful job piecing it. Like others have said, I can't wait to see it finished. Nice job.

    I like it very much-you can send it to me and I'll hide it from you.
