I would just chalk it up as a learning experience and not worry about it :D:D:D
Your quilt is beautiful, you fixed the error, so what is next on your list? :D:D:D

Thanks, Bella, that gives me hope. I found it almost totally disappeared with the fusible web fix, but was afraid washing might fray the cut line, so that is why I zigzaged the cut edge. Still have to look close to find it. But I know it is there. Rita

Can you post a close-up of the oops? Your quilt looks beautiful and I love the way you did the mitered borders - I've never done those, but they are a pain to keep square on the quilting frame!

Your quilt is beautiful and I am sure you are the only one that can see the error and what others don't know won't hurt them.
