    It is pretty...do a stencil in the white and feathers in the pink sashings...stitch in the ditch...and stipple in the floral since you can't see it...use pink thread in the white and it will be adorable for a girl...

    I bet once its quilted you will change your mind. I really like it and love the floral fabric you used. Don't think it's ugly at all!

    Why change or add anything? It's cute as a button. Definitely NOT ugly! Not every quilt has to be high contrast and POP.... Just quilt it now. I think it will grow on you.

    I love it!

    Reminds me of my Gram. She lived to the very young age of 99

    I like it also - just needed the pop of a darker border. But I think if you do flowers and feathers, it will really help it.

    Your quilt is not ugly. Sorry no ideas on quilting but please finish this quilt.

    I don't think it is the least bit ugly, I really like it. Maybe MaryMo has something, you can try adding a little wider outer border of pink, I think that would be beautiful. I think the light pink gets lost a bit but I still think it's pretty.

    I don't think it is ugly at all. Maybe not as exciting as you would like or not your favorite - but then life is like that. It is nicely done and someone will love it. Quilt it and give it away - I guarantee someone will love it.
