The Amish always make a mistake in their quilts on purpose because their belief is that nothing is perfect except God.
I have never seen one of their quilts that wasn't beautiful!

I REALLY like this one!!! Besides, the last person I know of that never made a mistake could also walk on water!!!

Tell folks that years ago an old Navaho woman told you that it was unlucky to try to make anything perfect, that each object had to have one imperfection. Most of the time no one but you will be able to find it.[/quote]

you have made a truly unique gift ! look at the perfections you have achieved and not the imperfections

With all the thoughts about the humbleness before God's eyes, perhaps you could find a Bible verse to include on the back with your final signature label, personally from you!

Combine it with the importance of not being perfect in a marriage and the forgiveness and understanding that is required when two ♥'s become one.

(although, if this is a community choir and not affiliated with your Church. it may not be so appropriate)

what a fantastic quilt.... me being one of those that cannot stand "balance".... (assymetrical,,, that's my motto).. i see this as part of the design.... that's why i dont' call them "mistakes"... just creative opportunities...there will be a "Mickey" quilt posted soon... and you'll notice that one mickey is "upside" down.. i give him a "bow" and said it was Minney... trying to stand out in the crowd!!! Bless you for making such a beautiful tribute... it's wonderful..
we are always too hard on ourselves.... God loves us because of our human faults... !!!!

I am so sorry! But I think quilters may have the greatest eyesight and see "everything" and others don't see what's so "glaring" to us. Whoever receives this quilt is going to love it and treasure it because you MADE it for them!
