How much would this bug you?

Your son is young, he won't notice as I am sure no one that you show it to is going to notice. I had to look at this closely to see what you were talking about. If it bothers you, rip it out. Otherwise, just leave it alone. I have made some mistakes and they were on my mind, until I posted to this group and they put me at ease. I left my quilt alone and since I don't dwell on it, I don't see it, nor does the family member I gave it too you.
As I learned here... If you can't notice it from galloping by on a horse, then no one else will notice it

I know people who go back and redo any problem, even a messy stitch where it will never be seen. I think that can make you a bit crazy, fretting about details, instead of enjoying the many pleasures of quilting. Please don't overthink your work.

I really can't see the mistake you are talking about on the close ups... if something bothers me, I take it out, and I mean I have even taken out almost a whole quilt...But, its a personal preference, and your son will love it! Do what makes you happy...I sometimes have a little trick I use when making a decision...I write on paper my 2 options, fold them, close my eyes and shuffle around, with eyes closed, grab 1, open eyes, open paper and read it...if my very 1st feeling is relief, I know thats the right decision...if its, hmm...2 out of 3, then I know the other one is how I should go....I know this is kinda grade schooly, but it works for me!

I really don't see the problem and I know I have left bigger ones. But don't tell, If some body says something, act innocent. Your kidding, well I guess that can be my mark or signature if you will. Lol
