    Don't beat yourself up. If you don't tell everyone about it everyone will just think it looks great and can be viewed from any direction. What you think of as a mistake usually dosen't even stand out that way to someone else. That is the drawback of directional prints. :(
    Pretty material no matter which way you are looking :D

    I say keep it the way it is!!
    As stated before(and this was the first thing I thought when I saw it) no matter which way you are looking at it--you see a right side up lighthouse!!!

    Who is going to know it wasn't meant to be that way except you???? They are random and that's fine-it isn't like only two or three are going the wrong way! Just finish it and be proud of it! And DON'T tell people!!

    what would it look like if you turned all lighthouses the way you wanted them to be? It wouldn't be the pattern your were striving for but may give you a look you like.

    I would have thought this was done on purpose, so leave it!

    I agree and I think it looks great. Wasn't that what you intended?
