Asymmetrical HST Quilting Progress

Have you ever started a project and about halfway through you step back, look at what you've done, and thought to yourself, 'this is not what I thought it would look like?'

Well this is exactly how I am feeling right now looking at the progress I've made quilting this asymmetrical hst (half square triangle) quilt.  I was so eager and excited since this was my first design (you can read about it HERE), that I immediately started quilting.

I had a set image in my mind of what it might look like, and I loved the quilting design I had in mind and really thought it through before I started.  I honestly thought it would look great.  

But now that I'm stepping back and really looking at the quilt, I am second guessing myself.  I know, ... I know, we are own worst critics, but seriously, it is bugging me!

Sure it looks okay, but I think that what I have quilted so far, is 'ugly'.  The  pebbles aren't even, the straight lines aren't uniform and even the stitches itself is just not pretty.  I've checked and double checked the tension and its perfect, front and back...

  

I think I like the back more than the front :-)

It cant be that I'm rushing, I don't get that much time to quilt anyway, my little one is keeping me so busy wanting to be outdoors most the day, so I don't get that much time to quilt.  When I do, its short periods, so I don't think its concentration lapses?  Maybe its because I'm not quilting long periods, that my mind is not fully focused on what I am doing.

This quilt will be a wall hanging, so it would be in plain view, seeing all the little mistakes all the time.  Could or would you be happy to hang something for everyone to see if you are not entirely happy with what you've made...?

Maybe once I'm done, blocked, bound and hanging on the wall I might feel differently...
