Just do the additional quilting in a light gray or white or even invisable thread. This will continue to let you practice, but you will end up with something really cute in the end. Who ever said that all your quilts have to look "adult and perfect"???? There are lots of "styles" out there, lets use them ALL :D

Well, thats my opinion and I'm stickin' to it... :lol: :lol:
That's a wonderful option! And sure beats ripping out seams! It all depends on what you were planning to use this quilt for... if it's just for you, or a child, then this is an excellent idea and you'll get more practice time. If you change the color of the thread and add a couple of other colors, it would look like 'abstract art'. There are many solutions!
