Just finished the last of the 9 blocks and noticed that half of the blocks are appliqued on the wrong side of the background fabric. The background is a tone on tone tiny floral design. I'm blaming it on poor light and old eyes. Question. Would you redo the blocks or finish as is and move on to the next project. I don't think it's that obvious. I'll try to post pictures to see if you can tell.

I love to applique and I've done that wrong side of fabric thing. I go along with the others here who say to alternate the blocks. It might give it interest.

It will be fine. I love different shaded background blocks so you are right on!

I would just alternate them for texture and if asked it was done purposefully!

This will work. I know lots of people who use the "wrong"side on purpose. No one else will even know unless you tell them and point it out.

I would not do them over. I would alternate the blocks, no one but you knows its not right.

There is no wrong side of the fabric...only the other right side!

I would not change it.
