    Don't stop! It is going to be very pretty! By the way, I love scrappy so if you don't like it when it's finished, you can send it my way! :D

    I like it!! I don't see a thing wrong with it. It will be so pretty finished. Go for it girl. Keep sewing. If you still don't like it, PM me for my address. Seriously. things have a way of taking on a whole new look once they are sewn together. You'll change your mind.

    What's not to like. Finish and it will be lovely. All pieced tops become masterpieces once finished.

    I'm really not comfortable with scrappy either but I like what you've laid out so far. I wouldn't toss it out just yet. Seems like with every quilt I've made so far it goes through a time period where I'm thinking I don't like it. A few have stayed there even when completed but most of them I end up liking. :) Stick with it!

    The ones I don't like go to charity. And sometimes ones I make for charity....I'd like to keep.

    LOVE IT! Just put it aside for a bit and perhaps you will like it later.

    I do samples for a quilt store that I teach at and sometimes I have a hard time doing them because they are fabrice that I wouldn't choose if it was for me. I remember working on a quilt the had bali strips ( I love batiks) and I didn't like it the whole time I was doing it. After I sent it in and they sent it to the long arm quilter and hung it in the store it looked fabulous. The quilting really made the difference. Don't give up as each stage will change the appearance of it.

    Please, please, please, continue with what you have started. I like what you have done so far, so much, the colors remind me of ice cream on a hot summer day. It is so hard to step out of our comfort zone. Whenever I feel like you feel about this one, I step back and tell myself that every piece looks so much better when sewn together and then pressed. If you still don't like it when it is ready to quilt, PM me and I will take it off your hands.
