    Bummer.

    I would take off the smaller 4 patches.

    It's a very pretty block.

    There's no easy way. It is a nice pattern and your blocks are neat :cry:

    good luck...you are not the only one who has done this. Some days I just walk away from the machine :)

    Why rip anything out? You just made a different block, that's all. May in Jersey
