Sooooooo you have one of a kind, it is called original. I am sure it will keep some one warm. Your heart is in the right place even if the blocks arn't. Nancy

Looks great to me! I would go ahead and quilt it and wash it. The quilting will blend it in and you will be the only one that knows there not where you thought they should be.

Call it a design feature and Pretend you did that on purpose! Some of my most interesting features were mistakes that turned into creativity.

The quilt looks fine. No one but you know how you intended it to be. If every quilt has to be perfect, few quilts
will be given to charities.

Quilt it and give it to your charity. It is fine and no one but you know how you intended it to be.

My thoughts exactly!

You obviously chose the right thing for you to do. Now, if it had already been quilted, then I would have said leave it, but for that amount of ripping I would have done it too. Not perfection, but just close enough, is my motto!
