Since you let your sister pick the fabrics and her husband pick the pattern, I don't think you have much choice but to go ahead and finish it. Even if you don't love the first block, I bet you'll be surprised that the final product is quite stunning and I bet you'll like it a whole lot more then.

Hi, I can understand the reluctance to continue a project you don't really like. It is a beautiful block though and personally I love the combo. I think that working on a few blocks with breaks in between and working on something you enjoy will help. Just need to be disciplined enough to make time for the one you don't really like or it will never get done! Perhaps it will grow on you with time....Best of luck! :D

You just have to remember that it's not for you. I don't think it looks that bad. Once it gets done you will most likely be more pleased with the finished result. Don't give up, think of how it is going to make your sister feel when you give it to her.

I love the fabrics!!! However, I would never have had the nerve to include all of them in one block...my quilts will always be boring compared to this. This is going to be a beautiful quilt! Your sister says she loves it! That is what matters.
