It's well worth the fix. It is so nice! I love the spring look.

I would redo that block. I would make a new block because when you rip it out the fabric is going to stretch. Be sure to stay stitch your other abric to prevent stretching.

Just one? I recently made that pattern and after sewing several rows together, I discovered several blocks turned the wrong way! Yours is just beautiful! Glad you got in and fixed it. That's what I would have wanted to do.

It is frustrating to plan out a quilt and then something goes wrong. Well hopefully it can be fixed if that is what you are going to do.

I am sure you will be happier if you just unsew and fix it now (smile). Not fun, but will make you feel much better in the end. Beautiful fabric and pattern. Thank you for sharing.

Now comes the rest, pinning, and quilting . Well it will have to wait until after the holiday maybe . Depends on how irritating everyone is I may disappear into my sewing room. LOL. There are advantages to being older and not healthy.... I can be anti social and its expected. :-)

Cool

I would probably do as suggested and redo the block before I quilted--but I have to say that I recently was the winner of the BOM in my quild and had always been hesitant to do the BOM as I didn't feel confident enough that anyone would want MY blocks--well, when I was putting the BOM together for a Christmas throw I realized one was done incorrectly and had about the same problem as your block--I left it to remind me that we all make mistakes and not to freak about those that I make!

Ditto - that's what I would do too!
