not all flags in quilts are exact. It looks lovely to me. change it if you need to but i'm sure it would be loved either way.

I think they're both beautiful and in light of Darren's information I'd leave the flag as it is. You could consider it a kind of happy accident...

That's why you see stars and stripes on clothing and such that are representative of the flag without actually being a flag. I recommend you keep the image as is. Thanks for sharing - this is a great patriotic quilt.
