I know, we are our own worst critics but I don't think you will ever notice this especially after it is washed one time. Just enjoy your new ruler foot & rulers & have fun with it. It looks like you are doing an awesome job!

I thought the green arrow was the oops! Lol! It's not worth fixing. I might fix a bigger one if I wanted to practice fixing oopsies, but not one this small. Unless my obsessive compulsive self kicks into high gear.

I would be celebrating if I completed a quilt with only one 'oops'. I know me well enough to think I would 'fix it'. However, matching the fix into what is there without it showing would be another challenge. I think I would perhaps move along and see whether or not there are any more 'oops'. Most of us would probably say that most of the quilts we finish have a few imperfections. Mine do but I never point them out.

That's like what my Grandmother would say, "If someone on a trotting horse would not see it, it's not worth noting".
Relax! OMG! It is so beautiful. I love that rich cream color and intense blue. What stellar fabric choices!

Wouldn't have noticed the Thread if you hadn't pointed it out... Since this is a Practice Quilt you can try different piecing and quilting stitches ( different designs) then donate the quilt to worthy charity... They will just notice the Warmth and Love that went into it...
