My suggestion is that you don't get in such a hurry to give up. You threw your quilt away now you regret it. Maybe set it aside for a while. The next time you look at it you might see things in a different light. Also, look at each project as a learning experience. I have several quilts like that. This is the one where I learned about not cutting off points. The fabrics I chose for this one didn't work but now I know why. This was my first attempt at hand quilting. Mitered corners on this one. FMQ doesn't look so good here but it was my first try. I think of them the same way as the squiggly drawings I've saved from my kids and grandkids. It shows I'm making progress.
