    Apparently I wasn't paying close enough attention to the layout when I put together my D9P block. I should've done the heart layout instead of the I Spy layout. now 3 out of the 4 lighthouses are not going in the right direction. Do i chuck it and start over or is there something else i can do? I am so disgusted with myself, but I really don't want to start over either. any suggestions? any help would be appreciated. Thanks in advance.

    I think it looks fine. No matter which side of the quilt you look at, you can see a lighthouse right-side-up.

    I would just finish it. Some of the lighthouses are going in the right direction and the rest can be viewed from other sides.

    Keep going. Riding a galloping horse a block away I can't see anything out of place.

    I'd leave it like it is. Then there is no "right" side to look at it

    I like the random look of it.

    Just close your eyes and keep going! It will be fine! :)
