Terrible mistake- [Update] - All Fixed - See Post #97

I would take that section apart and correct it, then re-quilt the corrected area. The quilt is too pretty and nice not to take the time to make it right. It will take some time, but you could take out those stitches while watching TV, and maybe it won't seem so long Good luck, and don't fret!

I would leave it.....nothing is perfect including quilts....I think it gives it charm and creates a conversation piece. Can you tell I hate to rip.... One quilt I'm binding now I did on a long arm with a pantograph, I just realized I missed the quilting inside one design......it has charm lol that's my story

To be honest, I would simply go ahead and bind it. Let the new owner discover the "mistake" that makes this quilt unique. For me the "mistake" simply adds to the charm of a very beautiful quilt.

Although un-sewing isn't any fun, if it were up to me, I'd carefully take that section apart and re-do it. Thankfully, it's on the outer edge, so shouldnt be too bad to fix.
The quilt as a whole is beautiful; I'm sure that no matter what you decide, it will be a much appreciated gift.
