Thank you, it's just some simple 9" blocks that I put together, no pattern name that I know of.

Because of its size I assembled the blocks in 2 sections and sewed the 2 sections together up side down. It's not very noticeable because the fabrics all blend nicely but I know it. Before noticing the mistake I had sent the photo to many quilting friends and no one has noticed it but I know it. So I'm depening upon you to keep my secret.

i once did a baby quilt for a sister-in-law who was expecting her first child. I had backed it with a soft yellow brushed nylon. I was about 3/4ths done with the quilting when realized I had the backing wrong side out. I finished it and just let it go--nobody knew except my son and i had to tell him what was wrong after he looked at it for over a half hour.
