    I did this mistake on a double bed pattern and now I am redesigning the whole thing. It will have a pillow tuck and a different design over the pillows. When the Lord gives you lemons you make lemonade! That is my motto when sewing!

    Good job. No such thing as a mistake here! Just a new quilt type.
