Yes - upper right blue arrow should point the other way.

As to the pieces not lining up properly, is there any chance you did a "print to fit" rather than an "actual size" for the paper? That might scale things different in the X vs Y directions and could lead to things not lining up as intended.

Actually there are 2 going the wrong way.

What's the name of this pattern? Have you contacted the designer and asked if he/she has made an actual sample? I agree with checking your printed pattern scale.

Watson, you have my sympathy! Don't we all do such things? Yup

The lower left orange and the upper right blue seem to be going the wrong way.
But I love how you're making "lemonade".

make a quilt that I have not seen a completed picture of. I did that once in my early years and lived to regret it. It ended up being used for a forever quilt for a rescue dog. I was just glad they could make good use of it. I won't that that chance again. The cost and waste to me was not worth it at all. It was very frustrating. I do see why you are frustrated. Consider this one a learning experience.

Write the designer. It appears it should not work up that way. The pattern may not be correct.

The joining points wouldn't bother me because they are all joined that way. When a lot of seams meet I grade the seam before joining, it really helps with having no bulk.

I like your lemonade block.

Oh Watson, that must be so disappointing. I agree with Quilt30 - I would be contacting the designer.

So sorry as that was a beautiful pattern. Agree with above opinions that tell you to contact designer.I doubt she expected points not to meet but how would you know unless you contact her. Good Luck. I would love to see the quilt made the way we think it should be.
