    This is my quilt named Musical Squares. I have made a major goof on it. Can you tell what I did? Tomorrow I will confess and post pictures of the corrected error and finished quilt.

    PS: This isn't pressed yet, nor are the strings snipped, etc. Those are not the problem. :D

    The two orange squares in the middle row are to close together?

    Is it on the second row the green block on right? The stripes are going up and down instead of like the stripes in the block in middle on the bottom row? If its not...well it must not be that bad cuz I don't see it.

    Is it that in the middle row of sashing the vertical quilting lines in the first column slant to one direction while all the others are vertically straight?

    I can't figure it out and my eyes seem to find asymmetry or "what's wrong with this picture" kind of issues. So when
    are you going to spill the beans?

    Edit: Okay, I went back and looked again--it must be the vertical stripe thing (all one direction in one block but mixed up a bit in another). Is that it???? I have to go to sleep and I can guarantee that I will be thinking about this until I fall asleep!!!
