    Beautiful quilt, and I totally agree with the others, to leave the blocks, unless they really drive you crazy. My question is, did you take a picture of the original fabric? I love to see how a fabric is transformed when it is made into a OBW

    The design is so intricate you're probably the only one who can tell there is an error! Beautiful!

    BEAUTIFUL. If it doesn't bother you that much why fix it? If it does bother you then I have found that it's better to fix it than dwell on it. I love it you have done a stunning job. It sure looks great to me. BrendaK

    This has come together beautifully. The 'mistake' makes it interesting but it's your quilt and only you can decide if you should fix it. I think it looks great.

    I have enjoyed your 'journey' with this OBW. Thank you so much for sharing with us so many times along the way. You have done some lovely transitions along the way. The quilt you finally decided on is beautiful, everything just flows together so nicely. As for the 'error'. If it bothers you, take the time to change it because it will always bother you. If you can see it as a design change, leave it and bask in all the accolades you are receiving. It seems like this is one of those successful skill building pieces that encourage you to press on.

    It looks wonderful...and you would probably be the only one (besides us now) that would know about the boo-boo. But, if you’re like me, it would bug me to not fix it. : /

    I posted in one of my other threads the pic of the fabric - https://www.quiltingboard.com/pictur...ml#post7976678

    I did end up taking it apart and fixing it LOL! It took all of 5 minutes, so I can't really complain. It was easier than I thought it would be.

    I knew it would bug me when I got to quilting it.

    I really want to thank everyone for all of their comments. I really struggled with the layout for this one, and all of the comments and suggestions, and Krista's help really helped me through this process.

    I'm on a couple of boards, and by far this one is the friendliest and most helpful!
