What should I do???

I was digging on my trunk and dug out some UFO's. One of them was a top that my MIL made before she could no longer see to quilt. There are 2 sets of blocks in the top that are matching blocks, sitting side by sie. Should I leave them the way they are or take them apart and exchange places with the duplicates?

Leave them. Perfect is not always the best. It is the way she made it.:o

Looks like she meant them to be that way. Are they only in center of quilt? If so, I think I would leave them like she intended. I like the pattern and colors.

I'd leave them, for sure! Every time you look at them you'll think of her!

personally, i'd leave them just as they are. it doesn't look bad to me, and it will be a wonderful memory of her.

Leave them... She made it that way, you'll be glad you left them that way.

I would leave it the way she made it - in honor of her. Think of the side by side blocks as you and her as "quilting sisters"

I agree, leave them as she put them. Her work will be a real treasure for years to come.

I would leave it the way she made it. It is a beautiful top.

Ask your MIL she still can talk and think can't she? That would be what I would do
