    Default I spy a mistake
    I was getting ready to add my border when I spied this reversed block right in the corner. I am so glad I noticed it now and not later after quilting. [ATTACH=CONFIG]561767[/ATTACH]

    oops......I did that once and didn't see it until after it was quilted. I sure felt dumb. Glad you were on your toes.

    It is in an easy place to fix at least. I had one on my current project that was in the middle. I too spotted it before quilting but it was a royal pain to fix. But if I hadn't fixed it, it would have drove me crazy.

    whenever I do that, it always seems to be in the middle of the quilt.

    Nice quilt and how lucky you are to find the error before quilting is done. Looks like it will be an easy fix.

    Actually, I like the mistake it adds a fun twist and personality. It is a lovely quilt top too!
