    LOL...been there done that!!! Seems you can look and look at the quilt before you put it together but sometimes you still get something backward or turned the wrong way. And when you don't notice it until it's completly done, you just have to tell yourself you meant it to be that way.

    It's a great quilt and no one will notice, I wouldn't have....
    rail fence was my first quilt and have made many since, they work up quickly and look nice...

    Gosh, i thought i was the only one who could get a whole quilt done and not see an error until i take the picture ;) it makes for an interesting (twist) i think it looks cool! and anyone who sees it would only think you made it that way on purpose...once they are done no one ever figures out that we didn't mean everything :thumbup:

    I didn't notice it until after I stared at it for about 3 minutes! I like it that way personally. Gives added interest and if you do pillowcases then that'll be a great addition.

    I think it makes it more interesting to look at. Love the bold graphic look that you got! I usually avoid solids but I really like the look here! Thanks for sharing!

    I like it. Love your colors and I absolutely agree. I don't think anyone would think it was anything but a creative decision. Adds character.

    This made me laugh!! The messups are the best part of quilts, and always show that they're handmade and not mass produced in China!
