[QUOTE=Dina;7301141]Okay,
even after all the above your client may not want it after it has been fixed. So sorry for you a really difficult dilemma.
good luck. I'd quilt from the reverse where you can see the old quilting lines.

I find it interesting that so many feel that the quilter should have found the error. The quilter's job should be to focus on the quilting. Granted, it is always easier to find errors in someone else's work, but do we really want to put that responsibility on someone we are paying to concentrate on the quilting?

Okay, I know I am a different thinker, but I would leave it. I would contact the folks you made it for and show them. If they are non-quilters, they may not mind at all. The mistake makes the quilt unique, and I rather like it. If they hate it, then fix it so that it looks like it should.

You said that the buyer is fine with it. HOORAY! Why are you putting yourself through this. Deliver the quilt, collect the $$$ and let this go! Geeee

My question is why didn't your long arm quilter see it and call you to ask about it first before quilting it? Even if it was already on the frame, she should have done it. Would have saved you time and effort. Best to get the ripper out.

I too would be sick over this that I would have to remake it the quilt and take the loss. I agree it is not the responsibility of the long arm person she isn't the one who made the goof. She may have even thought it was there on purpose.
