I agree particularly if there is a pillow tuck it will never be noticed. Love your colors and pattern.

no, don't rip it out. things like this make people look closer and isn't that what we want? people to look closer at our wonderful quilts? it's lovely, so don't fret. just say you did it that way.

But, as I said, it really doesn't look bad. I guess it just depends on how attached you were to the way it's "supposed" to go. ;)
ETA: Flipped row aside, it's a really nice scrappy look. :)
