I think I'd have to fix it. It would bug me if I had to look at my mistake the rest of my life.

took me a while to figure out what was wrong. Sometimes I leave a mistake just to show it is made by a lhuman and not a machine. LOL....Do whatever makes you happy. Re do or leave it. Up to you. No one else would probably even notice it.

Me too. Just have a cup of tea, relax and rip the stitches out and then put them back together again the right way. You will be glad you did.

Applique the green piece and applique a floral piece all fixed!
I would take the seams out and rotate it to the correct spot. But that is just me. If you decide to remove the block. go about 2 inches beyond it then resew opposite sides to the quilt. GL. Lovely quilt!

Be glad that you noticed it now! I had a 3 block section rotated one turn much like this, but did not see it until it was quilted (paid someone else to longarm) and I was sewing on the binding! Nothing to do at that point. If I took out the quilting, took out the 3 block section to rotate and sew back in the correct direction, would not be able to put the overall quilting back in, so I am living with it as my humility quilt. It is on my side of the bed every night because I get cold and need more blankets than my husband. It was such a pretty quilt, too! I used one focus fabric that I purchased and hand dyed the other purple, green, and yellow coordinating fabrics! It was a mystery quilt project that I run for my local quilting guild as well. Boy, do I wish that I have stopped and had a look when the blocks were sewn together as you did!

Just applique a triangle of the print over top!

I would never have caught it!

I did the same quilt and did the same thing. We're not perfect, so we're allowed to make mistakes.

I have 2 quilts with blocks turned the wrong way...I didn't see the mistake until I was half way through quilting on a LA machine. Oh well much too late to fix them by that time. Take the mistake out now and you'll be much happier with your
quilt.

I think you should change it and be happy with your work. But here is another solution-I had a wall quilt I slaved over, 100's of pieces, searched high and low for just the right fabrics etc. Almost had it quilted when I noticed a block was turned wrong. So mad at myself did not finish it for 3 years. Then had a wedding come up and the colors were perfect, the design significant to the groom. So I finished it. Put a note on the mistake saying the Amish put a mistake in their quilts to remind themselves no one but God is perfect and remembering that will keep a marriage in good stead. That quilt is proudly displayed in the entrance of their home now and they must boast about the mistake because I have had many mutual friends compliment me on the fabulous meaningful quilt I made. Lemonade!
