You were fortunate to find it before it was quilted. I found two blocks going the wrong way in a large log cabin quilt, as I was putting on the binding!

For some reason that is so easy to do with log cabin blocks! I feel your pain, sister! But your quilt will be beautiful!

I don't think there's a quilter alive who hasn't had a few big oops...and I've exceeded my limit for my entire life, lol

I do like the colors you chose.....!

Love your quilt. An easy way to fix it is to make the same mistake in the last five rows and put it on the left hand side. I actually thought it was a design element to begin with. So if you balance it out, it would give an interesting look to the overall quilt.
