I did this whole quilt and put two borders on it. I was so proud. I took a picture of it to send to my friends and thats when I noticed I put the last strip of the pattern on upside down. I dont know how that happened? Now my delema, do I take off the two borders and fix it or just have it quilted as is. It was for me so I dont really care but it will probably bug me down the road.

as long as it's not quilted yet, I'd redo that one piece, especially if it's going to bug you.

I would redo it.

It won't take all that long - there was a post a few days ago that suggested how to do it -

Basically - just unsew the "bad" part - plus a couple of inches beyond -

turn the piece around - and sew it back in place.

I would definitely redo....I know it would always bother me.

I'd redo that piece. Everytime you look at your quilt, THAT will be what you see. A little time ripping will be worth years of enjoyment without apology.

Yes, fix it.

Because of the pattern and because it's not quilted yet I have to say I'd re-do it.
By the way it's lovely!! :D

Beautiful quilt. I'd probably redo it, since it isn't quilted yet.

I agree with others. I'd redo it. You will feel better if you do.

Welcome to my world - lol!! I would fix it.

Looking at the way you constructed it, I would VERY carefully rip that one piece out. Flip it and sew it back in. If you are careful, you will not have to undo all the borders.
