Russell's baby quilt

I don't know exactly when I made this but I'm guessing it was in 1990.  My daughter wasn't born until 1991, so it had to be before that.  I did a lot of flying between San Antonio and Albuquerque for work back then.  I took these small cross stitch blocks with me to keep me busy on the flights and at night when I'm in the hotel room.

I don't know why I layed out the blocks like I did.  I can't believe I didn't border the blocks all the way around.  What was I thinking???  It's horrible and I want to tear it apart and redo it.  I'm sure I just hand tied it instead of quilting, so it would be very easy to re-make.  
The blocks are darling, the quilt is horrible.  I'm so sorry you are seeing this, but I have to document the bad with the good. And this is bad.
