    I always have at least one piece wrong. LOL. Mine are deliberate. :)

    Really beautiful!! Finally found it but it looks like it belongs there.

    Every project has an era in them. I don't do it on purpose but it reminds me of my effort and care it took to make.

    Been there, done that. If you don't mention it, no one will notice. Actually, it is a very beautiful quilt. You should be proud.

    Oops, I've done that before. I just pretended that it was supposed to be that way. Your quilt is a beauty anyway.

    The quilt is absolutely beautiful. If you hadn't mentioned the error I would not have seen it. I had to really look hard to see it.

    You are the only person that knows there is even a mistake in it. If anybody asks, reply with, "That's how you tell the bottom from the top"

    If you hadn't mentioned that there was a mistake, I never would have looked and searched hard to find it. Mum's the word!!!

    My first quilt has a block turned and I didn't notice it till I posted it on here! But I love it no matter what and you will too. I couldn't see yours without looking carefully since you pointed it out, but still very striking!

    It took me time to find it. But if you didn't say anything I wouldn't have seen it. It's beautiful. Well done.
