    Me either. It took me awhile. Looks like it could just be the normal bottom of the pattern.
    It is a gorgeous quilt

    Took me a minute to see it, but I don't think it changes the look of the piece. I love this!!

    I seem to remember reading long ago that some quilters used to put an "oops" (one piece the wrong color or turned on its wrong side) in each of their quilts because only God can make perfect things. Must have been really good quilters, huh?

    I think it's a wonderful quilt. I know I've done this kind of thing before so your in the club now! It doesn't detract at all from the look or balance of the finished quilt!

    I honestly thought that was how it was supposed to be. Beautiful quilt.

    I also had to really look and look to see what you meant. I think it is lovely and
    if you do not point it out the problem I think most people will be just taken with the beautiful colors and the overall effect! Thanks for sharing

    Doesn't look so bad if you keep it at the bottom of the wallhanging. Makes it look supportive of the rest of the design. Very pretty.
