Ugly to look at, but memories galore....it's done.

My daughter who is a registered nurse working in a busy large  Melbourne metropolitan Hospital Emergency department had asked me a few years back to make a rag quilt for her out of her childrens' old pajamas from when they were little tots....something to snuggle into on the couch and as a memento of when the children were little...and cute...and nice .

She has been working under extremely difficult times with the Covid Pandemic, her shifts are not easy and her diligence, compassion and dedication to her job under such horrendous pressures has been absolutely admirable.  I am so very proud of her.  So, after finishing "Papyrus" which was so intricate and "new" for me, I was ready and more than happy to get stuck into a "cut and bang" quilt. So here it is..all finished, 76" x 70"....with the obligatory error discovered after washing it (can you see it?).  Sewn on one of my vintage girls...the 201. "She" is now getting a pull apart and a clean and tickle as she is just about stuffed to pussys' bow with flannel and batting fluff as you can imagine!

What a wretched pity I can't deliver it to her as she is out of my 5km allowed travel radius. It will have to wait until I go to work at the end of next week as I drive past her house then.

I don't see how you can call that ugly. It is beautiful for so many reasons.

That’s not ugly...it’s lovely.

Sometimes the cut and bung it together quilts are the most pleasurable ...

I think I see the error but wouldnt dare mention it .... Because my darling, who gives a hoot???
She will love it ... Didnt you say you left you best fitting mask at work last week??? Dont you think you should pop in and retrieve it ????

Definitely not ugly - quite lovely, and I can only imagine how beautiful it is going to be to your daughter.

I can see what you might be referring to as an error, but it isn't really!

Oh that looks really snuggly, not ugly at all.

There's a lot going on there, so I'd call it busy, but never ugly!  Memory quilts could never be that.

No way is that ugly, it's very pretty and you should be very pleased

Love it so much, I wish I had of thought of doing that. I see one thing but I have OCD.

[Ohsewsimple]

That’s lovely.  I’m no quilter but I can’t see an error!

I have no idea if there's anything wrong with it but it looks so soft and warm.  I'm sure your daughter absolutely loves it
