    IF by chance someone does point out that only three or four are not set in the "right" orientation... hand it to them and tell them to take it apart and fix it... they will recant their comment...
    It looks lovely and I made a baby blanket with directional fabric where i deliberately made all the block upside down and sideways... that way there is no "top" to the quilt... little one can see puppies from any direction.
    Lovely quilt by the way :D

    Looks multi-directional to me.

    I agree with everyone else; what you see as a mistake will be a treasure to someone else. I love it ;keep going and don;t give up.

    Me too. Love your quilt, please leave it as it is. BTW Thanks for sharing.

    Make the mistake look as if it was designed that way. Add a border that is also facing all directions. Improvise! In the end it will be a unique quilt! One of a kind. Don't apologise or tell anyone. If a quilt were 100% perfect it would look like a factory mass produced one.

    I think it looks great!
    My girls call that a circle quilt-you can walk in a cirle and always see the design rightside up!

    when it's all bunchy keeping someone warm, the different directions won't make them feel like they have their quilt on upside down. You planned it this way for that specific reason. It's adorable.

    It was meant to look like that, that way which ever way you look at it you will see the lighthouses. I like it just the way it is.
