    I agree, go with the twin and move on.

    Go with the twin. Chalk it up to experience and find another project.

    Life's too short for unfun projects. Make it a twin and move on.

    A twin sounds like a wonderful solution! I picked up my Twisted Bargello after a 3 year hiatus and finished it. There is something about UFO's that sucks our energy out when we think about not completing it. I agree...do a twin and call it complete!

    Twin It's suposed to be fun! But isn't it great that you're no longer at the level you were when you started it?

    I would make it a twin, and put those cut but not together block pieces in scrap bins. :)

    Make it a twin and get onto something else that does not frustrate you. Quilting is supposed relaxing.

    Stop! Make the twin, quilting is supposed to be fun!

    Then finish the remaining blocks another time and make a baby quilt, table topper, etc.
