Why are you procrastinsting fixing it, or discussing it? Jump in and fix it. It will take you about 2 hours to fix it. If you don't, you will spend way more than 2 hours discussing it, fussing over it, explaining it, being embarassed, over your lifetime. Sorry it happened, but no one but you will know you put 2 more hours into that quilt then the other. And enjoy making the repair, learn something from it, be happy about it , and share with us how you did it. You have a whole team of cheerleaders here in the forum to support you. ps They are both wonderful quilts and you are so wonderful for doing this for your co-workers.

Oops. It is not a life-threatening mistake.

with Twin you want different.... :)

they will both be loved

touché....

I am curious - people say the Amish make a mistake on purpose because no human is perfect. I would think that would then be intentional and no longer a mistake. It may alter the design but an intentional alteration all the same. Oh well.

Anyway, if you make these quilts intending for them to be used and abused, I would not change it. But if you are making them to be gently used and saved for future generations, then I would make the change.

I've made a similar mistake on a twin size quilt. What I did was make a block the same as the one I want to cover and use fusible and applique it the correct way onto the mistake. Then I played connect the stitch lines to stich the patch into the quilt and let it blend. It actually hid it so well you have to look hard to find it.

Ah, your angel had a hand in that one :) That's a good thing. My sister would have to rip that out and "fix" it. Me, I would look and say, ah crap. Then I would simply say my angel did it. Like Tothill says, those two girls are twins, but one will be more bold than the other. That's the one that should get that quilt. Its usually the one who was born first :) I love the quilts - the angel squares make it better. Not a "bad" mistake. A good, angel kiss.

WELL they are still nice!!!

Nice quilts! How nice of you to make quilts for all the new babies! Personally I'd just leave it. It's hardly noticeable, in my opinion, especially for non-quilters.
