    Have you not read "The ABC's of Quilting"?? "A." is "If a mistake can't be noticed from the back of a running horse a 1000 yard away, its not enough to worry about." (Or something like that.)

    Wow this looks great! I have a UFO of this same pattern and I must say that your fabric choices are much better than mine....also I think the 4 patch center square adds more interest to the quilt that the modification I made.

    You should finish it. I like the red. It will be a pretty quilt.

    Kitsie, I haven't read The ABC's of Quilting. So, this saying is new to me, but I like it!

    I have a lap quilt that I started 10 years ago when I was a BABY quilter that has lots of missing points. My guild friends held it at a distance for me to see that the missing points are not noticeable at all.
    Will keep it as an example of how far I have come in 10 years ....

    It is perfect! Cute, colorful but doesn't jump in your face. I love it and so will she. Wonderful job.
