Better just unsew the one block and flip it now....it will haunt you the rest of our adult days, if you don't! LOL

I would fix it also. I made a baby quilt for a neighbor's son's baby. After it was quilted I noticed a mistake. I gave it to them anyway figuring they probably wouldn't notice. The next time I saw them he didn't mention the mistake but said " I guess it's easy to make a mistake when you're sewing?" I said "Yeah, it happens a lot." and left it at that.

What you see as a mistake, I thought you had done so there would be a focal point. Green tip in middle floral to each side. It is pretty to my eyes.

Yes, this. Even if you have to sew some in by hand I think it will make you happier and more sane. LOL The top looks gorgeous!

It's too pretty not to fix. You'll be glad you did.

OMgosh. I had to look several times to see what you meant. It is a beautiful quilt and I personally would leave it and say I did it for a reason.......My dd does this on her crossstitches. Thanks for showing us. I know the nice quilt police would say to re=do and a professional would.....well, I'm not either. Happy holidays.
