In spite of paper piecing, I've never had to do so much seam ripping in my life. This is one project I will be glad to finish!!!

So Sorry, but that is just beautiful. Maybe you could do the same thing intentionally on the opposite end in the same place, then it would look like it is meant to be that way. I love that design you have made and the colors are terrific.!!

At this stage, totally fixable, or you can leave it and name the quilt, "A Way Out". Either way, a gorgeous quilt.

Reminds me of the time I put a queen size quilt together including 2 borders only to discover the center row was upside down. Whoever inventing the seam ripper should be a millionaire.
