    Talking I finally did it

    After 18 years of quilting, I finally started a quilt that I don't like. I don't like the colors, I don't like the pattern I was doing and I don't like my sewing on the blocks. So its going to be stashed away for another day - years probably.

    Have you ever made or started to make a quilt you didn't like for any of the reasons above and still haven't gotten back to it?

    Oh please CJ - *EVERYTHING* I've quilted I don't like!! My problem, however, is a lack of skill!!

    Who knows, you might run across it in 5 years or so & find it's grown on you!

    Nope, I'm too chicken to even try to make one in the first place!

    Not a quilt yet as I'm still new to it, but sewing projects, that's another story!

    Yes, an applique heart quilt...it was my first project, and I never finished it. I'm sure I'll go back to it someday though!
