If anyone notices I would say I meant it to be that way. It's the bottom. It can be diff from the other three sides.

I love it. It took me a while to see it.It's a good way to tell which side is up. I always bind mine with a different color binding at the top of the quilt so I know which way to turn it on the bed. I would love to make it but it looks like it would be hard to make.FayZ

Call it a design decision!

Then I double check the picture, then double check again befote I sew everything together.

I'd love to say I just threw it together but I was being, what I thought very careful and still.

I wouldn't have seen it had you not pointed it out. And at that, it still took me a good 5 minutes of staring before I saw it.

Beautiful job though!

You can start making it a practice of one goof per quilt as your signature.

I still don't see it.

You did a great job. I see the problem only because you mentioned it. That made me look for it!

very pretty. Where is the error??

I have learned to take a picture of it before it is all put together, this way I will see the mistakes and get them fixed. I have had to redo parts of almost all of them. Learned this after the first two.

I only noticed because you mentioned it. And I specifically looked for something.

But the way it is now, it looks like a plant stand. If you display it the way you have it in the photo it looks like you meant for it to do that.

DESIGN ELEMENT!!!! You're so creative to think of doing that!
