I am a little neurotic about this type of thing, but I really don't think it's a huge deal. I had too look and look and look to even find the boo boo and I'm still not sure if I got it. Lol. If it's going to bother you every time you look at it, and it's easy to fix, I'd say go for it. But if it's a more problematic fix and you can deal, then leave it. From what I can tell, the whole thing looks great!!

A couple of people said similar things, thank you! Love that perspective, and maybe I'll use it to try and make myself less neurotic. I'm also a knitter and I've been known to rip out several dozen rows because I forgot a yarn-over. I really need to let it go. :-)

Thank you! :-) My first quilt had some really wonky seams (sometimes a quarter inch or more off) and I was pleased by how well these came out. I cut this one with an Accuqilt so maybe that helped ... rotary cutting was hard for me to get the hang of!

It fascinates me every time this subject comes up. I find it difficult to believe that anyone needs to add a mistake to keep from being perfect. I make plenty without doing it on purpose.

I thank it is fine the way it is. Your son is going to love it.

i wouldn't take it out. Its all red ...

The Amish do not make a mistake on purpose. I personally asked if they did this and they said no they do not add a mistake intensionally..

Since it's not a glaring mistake, I'd leave it alone. I'm one that does rip out if I see a mistake that's obvious but this one is not obvious. Wouldn't have seen it if you hadn't pointed it out.

After 3 more quilts, you'll smile to see the mistake you made when you were a newbie. My grandmother never tore anything out. "Finished" is better than "perfect" anyway.

leave it its not that noticeable unless you are looking for it
