    It wouldn't be nearly as funny if the exact same hadn't happened to me. I made a quilt years ago and my son said the say thing about the design. It wasn't quite as clearly evident because it was a large quilt but he saw it none the less. I think the heart did a great job!!! Quick thinking!!!

    The Swastika is also a symbol in Buddhism and hinduism.

    Not only 'selective seeing' -- kids (and husbands!) also have 'selective hearing'..... :o)

    The spinning star pattern (got in a Amish qs) is another pattern that if you're not careful with color use, can end up looking like a double Swastika. I'm no kid but lived in Germany after the war.

    how funny! My girls and I made a baby quilt about a month ago and used a 4 rail fence blocks, and when we were deciding our lay-out we noticed a Swastika too!! We rearranged it, thankfully we noticed before we sewed it all up because I would be just like you and see it all the time. I love the added heart! And I really love your bag idea and might make some for my family for Christmas!

    That is sooo funny. Now that it was mentioned I see it too but don't think I would have seen it if it wasn't mentioned.

    So funny. I like the bags.
