    Beautiful quilt, pattern and colors. I too would have had to fix it.

    There is something about a photograph that shows a mistake, I don't know what it is about that process??? I made a quilt for friends in Colorado who lost so much in the floods in September and I gave them my new 'favorite quilt' that I'd just finished, I was going to keep it for myself.

    Before we sent it to them I wanted some pictures for my quilt diary and there it was as clear as day... it had already been quilted, bound so no way to correct.

    Now if I can just keep my mouth shut and not point out what is so obvious to me as they may never see. (At least that is what the LA lady and DH said, "They'll probably never see it.")

    Your Bargello is gorgeous, I love the colors of your batiks....

    Well, aren't you glad you found the mistake BEFORE it went to the quilter?? I quilted my Aurora Borealis from the book Twist and Turn Bargello. It took me moths before I saw it. Fortunately it blends in with the rest of the quilt.

    Really nice. Try taking a pic on your phone next time. For some reason or another it helps to see those booboos

    Beautiful!!! Love bargellos. My screw up was a Christmas wall hanging. Quilted down to the last 6". Found that I had reversed a couple of squares. Took it off the frame, removed enough quilting that I could remove the pieces and put them in their proper place, reload the quilt, and finish it. I think that taking pics should be part of the process before you quilt it.

    nope, can't find it.
    Think of it this way: Look at all the blocks you did right!
