    Hey, what happened to "No two Alike"?! As in no two snowflakes are alike. I too found your signature block. But, I really had to look for it. It really is a pretty design.

    I don't see the "mistake" ... only a unique quilt! It's beautiful as it is!

    Move on,girl. No one will know if you don't point it out. If it bothers you, do the appliqué as suggested.

    If you didn't notice it for 3 years, I wouldn't notice it now! It's lovely as is. We don't want to have a "perfect" quilt anyway, do we?

    Not sure I would fix anything but because I am a perfectionist I probably would, partly because there is such high contrast...I'd see that one corner fan missing in the upper left forever. Otherwise I like the modern/asymmetrical look of it and the fabrics you chose.
    Also looks like a nicely pieced top!
    My second quilt has a huge mistake that I STILL consider not only taking apart but re-hand quilting. It's never been used because it does not fit my kid's decor - it was an unfinished hand-me-down from 1935...

    Leave it.
    It took me 2 tries to find it
    It adds character.
    I love it.

    It took you a long time to make this quilt and I don't think you should change it. It happened for a reason. I didn't see a mistake at first when I looked at the pic.......you pointed it out. I would have never second guessed the missing fan.

    I say leave it. It's beautiful the way it is!

    Very pretty! If it bothers you, and you have the fabrics to fix it, then do so. But perhaps first audition it to see if it "fits".
    Meaning that there may be too much busyness in that spot, and instead may need a creative signature or such.
    Just a thought~
