I am a beginner quilter.. 3 years off and on.. and had never done pinwheels.. had to try them... It is a just because quilt which I will end up giving to someone... I give all my quilts away for some reason... My husband can't wait for one on our bed : )

By the way I do love the colors and the design elements you have in this. Is it for someone special or is it a "I just had to try this" quilt?

I love it! I would keep it the way it is because I have never liked things to completely match. It is just different enough to make you laugh at it everytime you look at it. :wink:
On the flying geese block from Eleanor Burns URR, I have one set of geese flying out of the block. I didn't notice it until I had trimmed and sized the block. When I discovered it, I found that it made me laugh and I wouldn't change the block for anything.

Honey, leave it alone. I think it looks fine and unique. If you don't mention the error, no one will notice....really. You did a fine job so quit kicking yourself and enjoy your achievement. It's beautiful.

I agree with Annette. If this is going to prevent you from enjoying this quilt for years to come, then re-do. If you can just enjoy the quilt for its beauty and not see this each time you look at it, then complete it as is. This is such a personal choice. It truly is beautiful!
