Mistakes just make our quilt more unique.

I looked a long time before I saw it, but if you hadn't told me, I would never have seen it.

If you don't tell anyone their is a mistake no one will know. Beautiful job.

It took me an hour to find it-Don't worry we all do that. It is a beautiful quilt!

Its gorgeous and had you not mentioned it I would not have seen it, the Amish, so I'm told, believe there is only one perfect being, God.

Had to look/hunt before seeing what you call a mistake. Who is to say (besides you) that it isn't supposed to be that way. Great quilt.

It is just beautiful! Haven't we all done that a time or two but the outcome is still beautiful!

That's why you didn't see it, you looked at it so much and knew what it should look like. I think it looks good, if you hadn't mentioned the mistake, probably wouldn't have noticed it.

I had to really look for it, shhh, no one will know. When we finish, we have different eyes.

The mistakes are only so visible to you! Trust me. I know. I see every mistake I made AFTER it's too late to fix it. Enjoy your quilt. It is lovely!
