Would you want to know if someone notices a flaw?

If it wasn't quilted yet,, I would like to know, BUT, I would hope the person had the tact to do it in a PM.
If the quilt was done, just consider it my humble block and keep it under your hat.

I would like to know. I am such a newbie that I think that I would learn from someone pointing out how to improve.
Everyone on this group is so encouraging I am sure it would be done with kindness. I also think that pointing out a flaw should probably be done PM.

It is staying there because I did heavy quilting. I still love it.

Sure I would like to know. Perhaps it could be fixed fairly easily, if not I guess I would just have to grin and bare it. Learning from my mistakes hopefully will prevent me from doing the same thing again!?!

i would like to know but only because it would let me know that i missed something or made a mistake but i wouldnt want someone to sit and pick my quilting apart, but i dont think anyone on here would do that they would only mention it to help out

The Amish intentionally insert an error into their quilts since only God is perfect. If my opinion is asked about a craft project, I give it but if I'm not asked, I don't volunteer. I don't want to take someone's joy away.

I would not point out any flaws or mistakes. I am not an expert and doubt anyone else is either.
I look mine over very well as I am working on them. I posted a quilt a week ago that was upside down, the quilt could go either way, the clock in the picture was upside down and someone pointed it out. I didn't appreciate it as it had nothing to do with the quilt.

some times mistakes make a quilt the unique work of love that they are meant to be whether it is a little mistake or a big mistake.
Me...I don't care if you tell me...I'm ok with that but that does not mean that I will fix it......
