After over three years, a mistake??
I made this snowflake quilt a good three years ago, maybe more and just notice the mistake in it?? I don't want to take it all apart now, can you find the mistake???

Thanks, well these dresden plates stand up when quilted, there not all sewen down and kinda look like angel wings. Took a long time to make and I can kick myself in the butt for not seeing this huge mistake. The dresden plates were sewen on backwards, so would have to take apart and turn them around.

If the plates "kind stand up like angel wings" I would make one stand alone quarter plate and back it (by putting it wrong sides together with a white fabric that matches and turning) and applique it on in such a way that it does stand out a bit. Surely it will look more intentional then the missing piece and will most definitely make the mistake not noticible to anyone.
It really is quite obvious that the upper left hand corner snowflake is missing an arm. Even if you had not mentioned there was a mistake I would have noticed it and wondered why the pattern was that way.

Yes, but it makes it uniquely yours. Every quilt I make has one piece that is wrong side up. For whatever reason, (probably too lazy to take it apart and correct it) that became my signature trademark! My little booboo makes any quit a Linda Rucker original! Lol!
Your quilt is beautiful !
