I took that little square out and hand sewed the new one in. Can't even tell where it was now. And all the other things you have done, I've done most of them.
The first quilt I ever made was tied. I was snipping the ties to make them even and cut into the fabric. I was VERY lucky that I still had some of the fabric. I just took a bit and covered. Gave to Sis for Christmas that year. You cannot even see it. You must run your hand over it in order to find where it is. Whew!
