I would definitely leave them as she made it that way - whether intentionally or not. It's a perfect reminder that we all make mistakes and the quilts still come out beautiful because someone special has spent a lot of hours and energy to create something special for us. Call it unconditional love!

It looks to me like there are "almost duplicates" in every row, not perfect duplicates, but close enough to be considered duplicates, if you sort of squint at them. Apparently, your MIL was aware of that and had a reason for doing what she did, so I'd just leave them the way they are. It's charming as it is!

That kind of thing bothers me, too, I like things spaced right. That's why I don't like scrappy quilts where you have to close your eyes and just take the next scrap you pick up. HOWEVER, scrappy quilts are like that, so if you leave it, it will be historically correct.
