The ugly side of quilts

Now I have decided to share this quilt top with you but you need to know why I think it is ugly. I had never pieced before so I decided to join the 'quilt along' that the lovely Amandajean was running. Since I had to follow her fantastic instructions alone, I thought I would use all my old fabrics incase I mucked up. I actually didn't do a bad job but now I have an ugly quilt...............lol. I have decided to finish it anyway. It will be a project for after Christmas and it may have to visit a lady down the river for quilting....................I am going to do another pieced quilt in nice new fabrics. My tastes have changed which is why I didn't mind using my old fabrics to muck around with.
