Default Go ahead and laugh at me

Making comfort quilts. Simple designs, big patches, finished one top, put it on the design wall just to get it out of the way while I cut the backing and batting. Oops!

Had to think... fix it? leave it as-is? Kids wouldn't notice the error - would they? Would DH notice? Called him in to look... asked him if he saw anything wrong... he commented on the fabrics! Too dark? No, asked him if he noticed anything wrong in "this area" - Oh, he said, I noticed that right away, I thought you meant to do that. Huh? Well if DH noticed it, then it definitely needs to be fixed.

Second picture - fixed and quilted. It only took a few minutes to unsew and flip the block around.
