I called it, "Wild Winds"
What do you think, and would you tear it up and redo the upside down piano keys that I screwed up? Keep in mind that imperfection is said to be art and originality, right?? : )))))

if you haven't already added a label to the back, here's a chance to put your info on the front. in each key, either write with a fine waterproof pen or embroider, your name, year, place of make, etc. make it part of the whole.
in any event, don't tell.

Only you know that the keys are upside down!! The border looks great.
I would not rip this apart. Sometimes we draw attention to something we think is wrong and others are just enjoying looking at it.
Don't be so hard on yourself. I remember Julia Child saying " Don't tell your dinner guests that you over-cooked the beans. They'll just sit there and say,'She over-cooked the beans." But if you don't say anything, they'll just enjoy what you've prepared for them.

I think it looks great just like it is. You did a good job. I wouldn't take it apart for that. If you think it stands out too much, you could put a couple of appropriate appliques in that corner to throw off the eye from that mistake, but I wouldn't have noticed it if you hadn't mentioned it. Great job. I like your colors too.
