I will honestly say that I wouldn't be able to tell what the problem is if you hadn't told me. I can see that the cable next to the corner is slightly smaller than the one next to it, but the floral fabric of the outside border helps to hide the size. The only way anyone would really be able to tell would be to flip the quilt over and check the design on the back. And though we love to look at the backs of quilts as well as fronts of quilts, if you don't point out the mistake, I truly think it isn't as noticeable as you fear.
