By no means should you trash it nor rip out stitching. Chalk it up to experience and learning. Finish it, wash and dry it and several years down the road it will bring a smile to your face. The process of quilting is a journey of learning and growing and these so called mistakes serve as reminders of where we have been and where we are going. We live in an age of complete "perfection" and it is a trap. The history of "blanket" making was never intended to be a journey of "perfection" it was a necessity to use up and wear out. Only modern times has changed this perspective of "blanket" making into a chore that requires "perfection". MHO and I will will step off the bandbox now, lol.
