There's an urban myth that the Amish always put a humility block in their quilts, saying that since only God was perfect, their quilts had to have a mistake in them. The myth is not true, but I like the idea of having a little "difference" in the quilts we make. Your quilt is beautiful, and the rogue block is VERY difficult to find, but is a good conversation starter!

Beautiful! Tell dear SI the Amish do things like that to keep from being overly proud of fantastic work! Congratulations on your beautiful work!

It looks fine to me. If the reverse block wasn't pointed out I never would have noticed it. I am glad you are leaving it.

OK, you're pranking me right? I skipped right over the first picture and zeroed in on the enlarged, 2nd photo and couldn't see anything wrong with it! Was the close up just to drive me bonkers? It's a very short road trip for me! LOL
