This Is Bugging Me!

I love the colors, I think you should embelish it like you did it on purpose. After all as the others are saying it went together perfectly and that is really hard to do if you planned it~ I love your cat material it is so cute!

I like the applique word and candy cane ideas! Making lemonade out of lemons. I think if it were me I would just take that whole seam out and flip the darn thing over sew it back on and be done with it.
We put in laminate flooring and there is a spot where 2 patterned boards ended up one right on top of the other. I see that everytime I walk into my sewing room, it bugs me, but I am NOT taking the flooring up, again!
Moral to the story, a stitch in time saves 9! Fix it now, before it is too late.

Suggestion: Take that one seam out ... that would give you 2 sections and then take that whole smaller section of strips and move it to one of the sides. I'm assuming when I suggest this that you have not finished the edges yet. That way, you'd have only one seam to rip and one to sew. Depending on which way you turn the section or which side you put it on, that would give you 4 different options, so you should not encounter a similar problem.

I see what you mean about those two pesky strips- how about making a feature of them by doing something like appliquéing some baubles on there, or a word (Noel?).
