I think the typo is that it's 12 (December) instead of 2 (February)? Since you're in the US I'm assuming it's month/day/year, not day/month/year.
Can you (or someone else who can draw) turn the 1 into a little design? Monika's suggestion to appliqué over it might be safer, depending on your drawing skills. Definitely pencil it in first if you decide to draw on it.

I'm so sorry that this happened to you and your beautiful quilt. I'm with all the other Members who suggest an applique piece over the mistake. I have to keep telling myself, "Quilting is about piecing fabrics together. Just do it and move forward." This is really what I have to keep saying when I do something that isn't what I wanted. It is a quick and acceptable solution.

The problem is that the baby was born on 12-1-2017. My DH (he writes my labels ) used the 18 without thinking because we are already in 2018. I like the idea about saving it for her first birthday. If it were a bigger quilt I might go that route. It is clearly a baby-sized quilt. I think the heart over the 18 is going work. I'll post a pic when I get it done.
