    It reminds me of a cabin in the woods - the kind of quilt that gets used and loved!

    Do some large bold appliqued flowers on the top of it or maybe in the blue blocks if you don't like it as it is and watch it turn into a masterpiece. I have seen others do this on quilts they didn't especially care for and it made the world of difference.
    I am working on a fish quilt right now and when I looked at it last night I said ugg, too much blue so I put ten inch boarders around it of a different color fish and wah lah, at least I can live with it now. It happens to all of us. lol I am going to finish my quilt even if I have to tweak it even more. I have too much work in it to back down now.

    If you don't want it, send it to me. I'll finish it up for a foster kid, maybe with appliqued fleece teddies.

    I think it is very pretty, I know sometimes we just don't like our own work, I am sure some you might give it to will love it.
