I have sewn the strips together for the quilt I am finishing for my Sister --who was making it for her daughter--when she started with dementia.
It has been a nightmare to put together and I am not happy with it at all.
I don't suppose her daughter (my neice) will even see what I can see as she doesnt even sew. I am so disppointed.

Sorry forgot to put whole quilt on.
The pattern started off as different width strips sewn together then cut up in triangles then repieced,so wether my stitching wasn't very even I don't know

Pojo---thank you for your kind comment
I was thinking of framing it with the dark blue,then a broad cream border--was going to put piano keys on but I asked on here previously and the opinion was to put the blue then cream border

You are being much to harsh on yourself. When you pictured the whole quilt I can't even pick out the places where the points don't match and once it is quilted it will be even less noticable. This quilt is and will be lovely when it is done.

it took me a little while to find what you were dissapointed in, the quilt looks great apart from that can't you undo that section and redo it, I know it is a pain but you would be much happier with the end result. just remember only God is perfect so we can make mistakes.
I still love it so well done and thanks for sharing

I think it is a beautiful quilt, and your sister will be so pleased that you finished it for her, and her daughter will have a lovely quilt to remember you and her Mum with. But since you asked for them here are some ((((((((((((((((Hugs)))))))))))))) to keep you going.
