    Thanks, ladies, for the kind words.

    It turns out I wasted my time taking the border off in one piece. There is no nice way to put it back on as is, so I spent the last hour with my seam ripper, and now have border pieces ready to sew on....again. But I am very pleased with this fix, and it was worth the 3 extra days it is adding to the quilt.

    I am a happy camper. (I am also happy that I bought a new sharp seam ripper a week ago. )

    I never really saw the face, but I do like your newer version better!

    Great fix for something you found unpleasing. I agree with the others and like your new arrangement very much. Most of all I am glad you looked for and were willing to spend the time fixing the problem. Now you have a lovely quilt and not an UFO.

    I liked the other one just fine, but it is your opinion that matters.
