It will be our lil secret! I wouldn't rip anything that looked so nice just because a few geese got cantankerous and wanted to go the other way! looks nice and if you hadn't mentioned it-I wouldn't have given it a second thought

I like the sides the way they are....better than top and bottom. Beautiful quilt!! Love the colors and design.

I agree that if it bothers you, change the top and bottom geese. Otherwise, it looks great.

It looks pretty good as is, but if you are anything like me - every time you look at it, you will wish you had fixed it...

I haven't read all nine pages, but I vote for flipping the top and bottom borders. Since you asked, it shows that you are leery of what is there, so you need to be comfortable with it. Good Luck

Very pretty quilt. I also would flip the top and bottom pieces - I like the dark contrast against the outside lighter outer border. Also things like that make me crazy when I do it ( I am a really good un-sewer!) However, it's your quilt and I don't know if anyone would know it wasn't first plan, although if you leave it, it will be as you intended - you make the final choice.

It is very pretty the way it is I think someone else said only a quilter would notice. I like everything about it the colors are very nice. I did worse than this on my flying geese. I have a problem with that and a log cabin for some reason my eyes do not follow the right directions. It is beautiful I suggest you just keep it as is.

I would leave it exactly the way that it is. Easy to figure out the top and bottom and adds your own "special touch" to the quilt and there will not be another one like it anywhere!!!

I always look at the picture before I read the post, and did not see the error until I read what you wrote. No one will know the difference unless you tell them. No quilt police here! Your quilt is beautiful.

it is your choice if you can live with it I would leave it
