It took me a minute before I spotted them. It's a beautiful quilt. I'm like you, I would have ripped it out and fixed it just because I knew it was there.
You can look thru your camera viewfinder or you can go to Lowe's or Home Depot and get a door peep hole. Look thru it backwards to view your quilt from a distance.

The brain interprets what it is expecting to be there, particularly in a repetitive pattern. Therefore the eyes see what the brain wants to see. It took me forever to find the oopses. Now I must admit, that once I knew they were there, they would drive me nuts and I'd have to fix them.

It took me a looong time to find the mistakes. It's a beautiful quilt anyways. I once made a quilt for my Dad. It was all finished and as I was wrapping it I noticed one piece of fabric had been sewn wrong side out in one of the blocks. I left it. He uses it in the family room all the time and nobody has ever mentioned the goof. They probably never noticed it.

It must not be too obvious...I don't see it!!!I'll have to look more closely. ;-)

Okay after I looked closely, row by row, I spotted them. It just adds character to your otherwise perfect quilt! Who needs perfect anyway? haha
