See when I see what the quilt will look like done, I think, in your sisters colors, it will be goreous. Sometimes we have to make things that are NOT our style , but I think it will turn out great.

it's a work of love for someone else. you don't have to love it yourself. i do know what you mean though. but she loves it!! so grit your teeth and get cutting. :lol:

You might feel differently about it when you can put a few blocks together to get the full effect. Other than that, just do a block every day or so. Think of it like you do washing dishes--it's a dirty job, but SOMEBODY'S got to do it!

I think the colors are fabulous! but also, understand not liking what you ae working on. Since it is for your sister I agree I would grin and bear it, it will be stunning when you are done. Please share when you are finished.

I have the same problem but find it easier to remind myself it's not "my" quilt when working on it. For what it's worth, the block you posted is beautiful in my opinion, but I can still understand your dilemma. Good luck getting through it.

Just grin and bear it. And keep thinking of the project you'll do once this one is finished. :)

I have made quilts that I absolutely hated during the piecing stage - sometimes I get all the way done and still hate it - but then I wash it and iron it and sometimes it comes around - I start to love it - the moral of the story is - I reserve judgement until I am completely finished - besides some one out there will love it.

BTW, I love the block you posted - and your sister loves it - just think how thrilled she will be when its done - then you will love it for her. Yah!!!

The block and the colors are beautiful and it would make a gorgeous quilt. Just do it and know she will love it. I know its tough to work with fabric or colors you dont like but its what she wants.

It will be stunning. She will love it. They chose the pattern and fabric together. Beauty is in the eye of the beholder!!
