However, I am in with those who like the quilts.

I admit they are not of your best (as you have made some stunning quilts) but they are certainly far from bad and well worth keeping. I have a jelly roll race top I really enjoyed making, there were six of us and I was second, such fun, but I really don't like my finished result and one day I will cut it up for whatever. But salvaging is in itself a challenge, and as quilters we all like to challenge ourselves, it's how we grow. They are nice quilts, just not exceptional, and they all certainly be appreciated. Just remember, we all like different things and what you don't like in your own quilts or others, someone else will love.Kate @ Smiles From Katehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17525561534884021883noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-983525468027485560.post-26221424690714614212017-05-10T22:15:52.754-05:002017-05-10T22:15:52.754-05:00One of the ugliest quilts I ever made ( in my own ...One of the ugliest quilts I ever made ( in my own opinion) is the first one everyone seems to love when they are looking at my collection of quilts.
