Oh! I see it! I never would have noticed it if I hadn't kept staring at it after you pointed it out. I love it!

I was told by someone a long time ago that every quilt has at least one mistake. Well honey, you found it!

It's a beautiful quilt and I would not think twice about mentioning it to anyone!

Anytime I make a mistake, I say nothing. If anyone points it out, (which is rather rude of them anyway!) I chuckle and tell them that little folk lure about every quilt having a mistake in it, and then I say to them, 'now you have found this quilts mistake, you have a very sharp eye!'

In the old days, women deliberately put a mistake in their quilt so it could be identified as theirs. And as the Amish say, "Only God is perfect."

Nah... you really meant to do that.
No mistake there... but I did have to look for the difference.

If any one asks why that one is different just say that it is a special block, unique just as is the designer. (It is your signature block.)
Had you not mentioned the mistake I would not have seen it and many people probably will never notice.
Nice quilt.

LOL When I read your message and looked for the one that is not the same I thought you could title this quilt

"Which one is not like the others?" A guessing game! LOL

It is a beautiful quilt nonetheless!!

Don't point it out to anyone. I had to look and look to find it. We are our own worst critics. Nice work on this quilt!
