Bummer.

I would take off the smaller 4 patches.

It's a very pretty block.

There's no easy way. It is a nice pattern and your blocks are neat :cry:

good luck...you are not the only one who has done this. Some days I just walk away from the machine :)

Why rip anything out? You just made a different block, that's all. May in Jersey
