    My mom always said, "You won't notice it on a galloping horse." So gallop away. That is a pretty quilt. I probably wouldn't have noticed if you hadn't pointed it out. Good luck. Applique covers many indiscretions.

    If it isn't quilted you can change it easily at this point. You don't have to take out a whole row, just the two blocks and a little of the seams to the blocks next to them. You will always be unhappy knowing it is there. When a quilt is a simpler looking design it is easier to find an error. It is so pretty and well worth your effort to correct the error. If it were an ugly quilt, I wouldn't bother, but this is so pretty.

    Yes, I see it but doubt I would have noticed f you had not said one was there. One time I made a small quilted wallhanging...it was the pineapple pattern. It had an off-white paisley in it. I made it, quilted it by hand, and did not notice that one piece of the paisley was wrong side out till a long time after I had bound it and put it away!

    You can always make the section and just applique it over the oops and then quilt it and no one would be the wiser. Ask me how I know It's a beautiful quilt!

    It's a gorgeous quilt! It's a reminder to stay humble--even when you make totally stunning quilts---(which this is!)

    If you want to fix it, and you haven't quilted it yet I would say undo the upper corner and fix it. But it took you three years to see it and only you said it had a error. I cant prove it wasn't suppose to be that way in the first place.
