Agree with everyone, finish it, looks just fine. No one needs to know what it started out as. :wink: Love the snowman fabric on your next one.

I agree with bluebird and all the others. It looks fine. Just don't tell anyonw that it's a D9P. Finish that baby and be proud. Quilting Christmas symbols (stars, bells, etc) in the white background squares may be nice.

The nine patch may have disappeared, but it's still a very neat quilt. I'm sure it will make a great snuggler for your son.

I like it now, I GUESS :roll: (AFTER TALKING MYSELF OUT OF RIPPING IT APART). :evil: But only you guys would know what I meant if I called it the Disappearing Nine Patch that DISAPPEARED! CAMO CHRISTMAS :?:
I understand where you are coming from. My first attempt at a D9P was out of Christmas fabrics as well. Well presto--- it disappeared too, all that work, gone. But the good thing was, my neighbor loves anything Christmas and she cried upon receiving it. So finish yours, take it as a lesson well learned and be blessed by the recipient. I am in a slump and am amazed at all the Christmas projects getting done this early in the year...
I showed it to my son (10 years old) his reaction was "Wow". :lol:
I showed it to my husband and his reaction was .... well lets just say that I shouldn't have asked :evil:

OK, so I need your honest opinions here....should I finish it? Or should I put it on the wall to remind me what NOT to do again?

Thanks!

Give it to your son. His answer was the right one. :)

teeheehee...You did what I do all the time (But I have found that if I hit edit and fix it, no one will ever know.) You probably did exactly what I do:When the quote comes up in the block where you will type your reply, scroll down until you get to another set of brackets at the end of the person's post. It will look like this [/quote] This is the end of her quote. Then I hit Enter a couple of times to make a space. Start your typing and you'll be good.

I can't believe I'm the one replying on this. I'm the most lame when it comes to the computer. So perhaps I have learned a little bit.
