Your quilt is beautiful!!! It is frustrating to see our mistakes after we get them all put together... a camera can be our best friend or worst enemy :wink:

It's a beautiful quilt.

It took me a while to find it and I didn't see the second one until you mentioned it and I went back to look again.

I had to look at it very carefully several times before I could see the "mistakes". It's very pretty!

I would have left it and called it a humility block, like in the old days.... LOL! It is true, it is sometimes very hard to see a boo boo. Your mind corrects it automaticly. I guess it is a mental thing ... LOL! I am not saying you are mental. Have you ever seen those puzzles like this?

Anyway, this is a great quilt. I am glad you found it before it was quilted in there forever. That would have drove you crazy.

I bet you feel better for fixing them, but I bet only a quilter would have noticed. And only if you prompted us like you did! It sure is a pretty pattern. You did beautifully on it too! Very intricate!

I saw it right away but your comment led me to it! No quilt should be perfect, my grandma always did a deliberate mistake in each quilt she made. :D

I think somewhere there is a saying to that effect but I don't remember it!!

I took me about four look overs before I saw it. But, it is on both sides so it can look like it belongs there. I would leave it.
