    I know the sashings are not in straight lines, the blocks are not same size, the colors are not quite right, the quilting is most childish, the pictures are hard to see with really poor resolution, and will probably run anyway, but it is my 1st born, and it is precious to me. Each picture has a way cool story to go with it, I made it for my sister in law for Christmas, and I hope she loves it as well.

    Anything with photos of the people involved in it is super special.

    Those things that you think are mistakes aren't- they just lend "character" to your quilt. I have some quilts with a lot of "character" myself. LOL
