You asked the question, but what do you really want to do? Can you live with it, or is it worth picking out to get it how you really want it. You may not have to pick out everything, either. Yes, I am one of THOSE quilters, and it doesn't matter to me how long it takes to get it how I want it. Sometimes it's serendipitous, and I love the new results created by a mistake, but most times I would put in a great movie, grab the seam ripper or little scissors, and redo it the way I'd envisioned it. Part of quilting for me is the enjoyment of of the quilt when it's done, and if I can't enjoy it because I am too busy looking at my mistakes, saving a little time to get er done is not a good trade off for the little effort it takes to redo. My 2 cents. :)

You made me laugh cause I'm also one of those quilters.
I grabbed my seam ripper & took the rows apart & did it over.
Now it looks like the 1st picture. lol
I also fixed the striped block that was off.
I'm still going to gift it but I wanted to like it also.
I will still make another not using stripes.
Being up north...we love our flannel!!
:-D
