    See the pretty quilt! This is only the third quilt I've ever made. I gave it as a christmas gift but really, was not happy with it - can any of you experienced quilters tell me what is wrong with this? It just does not look right and I am not sure why. I appreciate your feed back.

    It looks great! Just keep in mind that we are our own worst critic. I know I see things in mine that no one else sees - we're too critical of our own work.

    But.. .... ..... if it's bugging you that much, send it my way!!! Tee hee!!!! They don't call me KittyGram for nothing!!!!!

    I think it looks awesome, especially for your 3rd. If I had to choose something that was "off"... in my opinion, I'd say its the blocks with the white background on the outter edges. It draws my attention from the center. But I still think it looks great!!! Keep on quilting, you've got a lot of talent!

    I see absolutely nothing wrong with it! It's wonderful and boy, I am impressed for your third quilt! My third quilt was NOTHING that ambitious! You did a fantastic job! Lucky person who recieved it as a gift!
