    I goofed on a Folk Art Rainbow Quilt.(made from a kit)
    Instead of having a beautiful diagonal design, it veer off into a small curve at the bottom.. My quilt leader loves it and says it is an original and artistic. Who'd a thought.
    Now i love it.

    It's the top border isn't it? The direction of the HST's on the right half? I would NOT rip it out. The border is busy enough that if you weren't specifically concentrating on the "mistake", then it is not noticable. Be proud of your creative license to change things up. I always seem to make one goof in my quilts. Now it is a "signature" of my to accidently goof up one SMALL piece. It becomes a Where's Waldo to find the "mistake". I say leave it & go on to your next masterpiece.

    Don't you just hate that???? I did something similar, was told to leave it, or it might look worse after ripping it out. Still looks beautiful

    I personally don't see a problem. No one else will either, unless you point it out. Don't. It's really not noticeable. :-)

    I saw it but if yo had not mentioned it I wouldn't have. All my quilts have personality. That's what I call my booboos. Just like my kids. I love them all.

    I love it. Are you talking about the dark diagonals in the top row going the other direction? I love that!
