I thought this is interesting so I decided to share it. The old religious group Shakers not only made furniture but beautiful quilts. The one thing they did with each quilt was one block was done incorrect on purpose. It would either be in a different color, side ways or upside down, anything so that it was different from all the other blocks. Their belief was that only God could make something perfect not a human so that is why their quilts were not perfect. So if you ever see a vintage quilt and there is a mistake more then likely it was not a mistake it was done by a Shaker.
