It's not a flawl--it's a design element!

Looks GOOD -- nothing wrong with a "humility" row and not everyone NEEDS TO KNOW anyway. She'll like it better that way! I love it!

I once took a cooking class in New Orleans where the instructor/chef said, "If you start making a dish and it doesn't turn out to be what you intended, CALL IT SOMETHING ELSE!" I use that for all kinds of situations, including quilting! Perhaps it's a "Multi-Directional Rail Fence" rather than a simple "Rail Fence." WHATEVER it is, it's not a BLUNDER. It's beautiful!!

Maybe it will remind your daughter that whenever life isn't going in the direction she wants it, she can always change course. And when she wraps herself in it, she can figure out what that will be, knowing she is loved and supported.

I wouldn't change a thing.
