    Default I'm Not Sure.... Opinions Needed

    I bought this jelly roll a while back (Ansonia Pink & Chocolate) and I fell in love with it. I'm making a quilt for my BFF for Christmas and those are her favorite colors. I started hacking into it last night and the started the piecing tonight. I'm not so sure I like it.


    What do you ladies and gents think? I'm doing the Jolly Jelly Roll quilt and I'm not so sure this fabric goes with the pattern very well.


    I'm torn. Do I finish it or scrap it and start over with a different collection?

    Can you put your finger on what you don't like about it? I think it looks great.

    Im not quite sure what it is. Maybe it's too busy or the colors aren't blending well. I don't know. Maybe if I finish it ... It'll look different.

    Im still new to quilting so I was worried my fabric choice wasn't good with the pattern I picked.

    It looks like you've cut a lot of fabric. If you don't love it when finished, then donate it or figure out a way to rehome it.
