    it's a beautiful quilt. don't be so hard on yourself. the error is minor and only another quilter could spot it. best wishes on your upcoming surgery.

    I agree and I had to really look to spot the boo-boos LOL. A non quilter would NEVER spot them:)

    You know, the "errors" are really what makes that quilt. It makes for points of interest, places for your eye to gently rest. So subtle you don't even know it's happening. I'd call it a happy accident, because art imitates life...all of us are different and have our own "flavor" or character.

    You done good. This quilt knew what it wanted to be, even if YOU didn't. :D

    The mistake might creep out ever so slowly, but leap out ? No. The quilt reminds me of a lovely garden and a delightful place to be.

    I agree. Quit beating yourself up. It is still a very beautiful quilt, and I love the fabrics you chose. :thumbup:

    It is a beautiful quilt. If you would not have said anything about the mistakes, I would not have seen them. Great job.

    It is beautiful, i had to look a long time to see what you were talking about. I don't think anyone would not like to get this quilt as a gift.

    Beautiful colors. I would hang it on a wall in back of a couch or table, with part of the quilt in back of the piece of furniture!
