Look at that middle star! I have absolutely NO idea how that happened! It’s the correct colours, but in the wrong position.
I have some frogging to do!! And since I’ve already done some anchor quilting – it’ll be a hand stitching job … groan ….
Later: Once I had the block out, I measured the pieces. They were all weird numbers, like 2 3/16th square. What?? I would have remembered something THAT strange! This is one problem with UFOs: You forget what you did! So, I pulled out the pattern and then it all made sense. I needed to make a 1/4 square triangle. When I had originally made it, I had put the stitch and flip dark brown triangles on the wrong corners. So, the misbehaving block has been removed and the 1/4 square triangle is made, tucked into place and slip stitched in. Now, I just need to quilt it!

Gail, Unless the quilt was for something very special, I am pretty sure I would have been too lazy to fix it…especially if it was a UFO. You are a quilting wonder woman to spend that time to make it right. Congratulations! You deserve to do something special for yourself today.

Hi Gail,
I never would have noticed that if you hadn’t pointed it out. Of course, it would have bothered you FOREVER if you hadn’t fixed it. It would have been your go-to-point every time you looked at the quilt. Good for you for fixing it. It is a lovely quilt, and good for you for finishing up a UFO. ~smile~

Wow! I’m impressed that you are fixing your ‘oops’! I would have left it. Makes your quilt more interesting – but it is very beautiful! Sounds like it was a hard pattern – all those fractions!
You have a lovely day!

Well, you fixed it well. I finished a quilt top awhile back and while I was taking pictures for my blog, I noticed that I had flipped a few of the blocks upside down. It bothered me to no end, but I decided to leave them. The top has enough movement that most people looking at it won’t notice unless they really study it. I’ll always see it, so it will be a good reminder to pay attention in the future! Haha.
