Very beautiful and happy blocks! It took me a while to figure out which row you were talking about. If it were me, ripping it out would depend on the purpose of the quilt. Giving it to a child to run around with? I would leave it. Entering it in a quilt show? I would rip it out. I think it's not so noticeable since it's the end row.

I would have never noticed & actually it took me a while to figure it out. If it bugs you, fix it, otherwise I would leave it - I love scrappy string quilts! This one is gorgeous, so nice and colorful, it makes me smile :)

I'd fix it because I would never be happy with it if I didn't and it is such a beautiful quilt. You did a great job of picking the strips for each block. And the dark sashing really sets off the colors.
I agree with others who said if it bothers you, fix it. If not, just leave it.
