You guessed it - a GLARING mistake. I put 2 of the rows together reversed. All the time I was working on it assembled I was looking at it flat, never saw the error. A gift to be given the 18th, no way to fix it before then. Had to vent, no one else around here understands!!

Your heart must have broken when you saw your mistake. "Designer interpretation" works well LOL. In any event, the thought is there and the love has been stitched into the quilt, mistakes and all. We can only strive for perfection, only God is perfect. Be Blessed and have a great day.

sometimes i think we are quilting blind! i have done the same thing with putting together rows.
maybe you could give it to whoever you made it for and then tell them you would fix it .
hope it works out for you!
