Terrible mistake- [Update] - All Fixed - See Post #97
#31
I have done it (many!) times! This quilt looks like it is a medium meander. If I was to pick out the stitches, I would un-quilt it , leaving as long a tail at each end for reference as I could. Pick out the piecing, repiece, layer, and then bury each tail starting to quilt where I ended. If I didn't think I could join up to the other tail, I would quilt from the end to the edge and then do the same with the other tail of stitching. If the ends are buried, you might never see it again.

1) I agree - there is a mistake in that corner -
2) I disagree - that it is terrible, it is not - it is fixable - and from what people have said, a bit of a bother, but definitely not the end of the world.
It would drive me nuts to leave it like that.

I totally agree with this quote. It might take a while to take it all out but not nearly as long as it will bother you if you don't.

First off...Your quilt is beautiful! It looks like you just turned around 2 sections. If it were mine...I would carefull take out the quilting in just this area, sew the pieces int he right place and then requilt it. It's not as bad as you think. We have all done this. I love your quilt and the design. Don't beat yourself up over this. Just remember...there are never any mistakes in qujilting...only creative adjustments. I'm sure the person recieving this will love it!
