    So I finished this mariners compass about three years ago. It's been framed and hanging above our tv for about two years. The other night I was absent-mindedly looking at it, and it dawned on me that one point is backwards...danggit!

    DOH!!

    Wouldn't have even noticed it, if you hadn't have said something! It is gorgeous! I would keep it hanging, nobody else will notice, besides, you can always say you did it on purpose!

    It took me a long time to find the "backward" point. Wouldn't have noticed it if you hadn't pointed it out. It's lovely! :-D

    You are suppose to do that on every quilt. I have a wall hanging that I did in the early 90s. I just noticed a quilting mistake on mine too. LOL

    If you haven't noticed it before now, it is ok. Looks great to me, I would have never noticed.

    Someday I may take it down and fix it, but probably not.
