I love this quilt. I wouldn't give the points another thought! I look at each quilt as a snapshot of what I'm capable of at a given time. I rarely will rip apart more than a seam or two, rather just do my best and pin and press as best as I can. I try to learn from every quilt, then move on. Your niece will love this quilt for many years- just be happy with that, and look forward to your next project. Blessings, Kris

A lot of points were sacrificed in the making of this quilt...lol. It's a pattern called Chicopee Square. It calls for a faster way of making flying geese. I must not have measured 1/4" correctly or maybe cut them wrong. But, I ended up with some that had the appropriate 1/4" above the point & a lot that didn't. That made piecing it not much fun. Although, I do think it came out pretty. My niece Ashley doesn't know anything about quilting, so she probably won't notice (fingers crossed).
