The quilt is beautiful. Like everyone said, no one will ever know the difference. DO NOT POINT IT OUT TO THEM!!

It's great! I wouldn't have noticed if you hadn't pointed it out!

It's a gorgeous quilt. Don't worry about it! Still looks great.

What a sweet baby quilt. No one but you will notice the difference and if they do ....... well, it was just a creative design decision.

If you hadn't told us, it would have taken me a few minutes to figure it out...so I doubt anyone at a glimpse would notice it either. Great colors, what is the name of the pattern?

I think Clay was joking here but the truth is I have seen antique quilts intentionally made like that. The plain end was turned so it was either tucked under the pillows or tucked in at the foot board, depending on how the quilter planned to use it. Its a great little quilt!

When I do something like that, I call it artistic license. I agree with those who commented that the baby will not know the difference. Besides mistakes like that keep us humble (no one is more humble than me LOL)

It looks great the way it is - be proud of your hard work. It's beautiful!

I think it is JUST fine. Like many have said here, it shows which way is up. If it had been in the middle, it would have been more of a "mistake". This is just artistic creativity ;)

You did a great job. It will be well received.

I would not have noticed it and even after you said I had a hard time understanding about it. I like it just as it is.
