I had a hard time finding your mistakes...the quilt is beautiful! When I have a mistake I don't think I can live with, I applique something over it. I did a whole quilt paper pieced for a wedding gift with a beach theme. I messed up the colors in the wave and appliqued a dolphin over it. No one ever suspected I was covering up a mistake. I didn't have the heart to rip it out and redo. :)

Did it make you happy while you were making it? Does it keep you warm? Then it is a perfect quilt.

The fabric and pattern is busy enough I don't think a non-quilter would even notice or think it was a mistake. I think it is very beautiful and I love your colors. No problem!!

The mistake will be more obvious hanging on a wall. Way less obvious if wrapped around a loved one on the couch.
We all have PLENTY of reminders of mistakes to humble us. Please don't hang this beautiful quilt with that purpose in mind. Be nicer than that to yourself!

even with all the wrong placed blocks it is a very pretty quilt. Just tuck the bottom in behind the frame at the bottom of the bed. My bed will work perfect. Send the quilt my way and no one will notice the mistakes.
