I was so excited to finish on Saturday, an August finish as planned.
Do you see how I forgot to piece the row that includes the bottom tip of the heart? I pinned a spare neutral 9-patch on to see if it made much of a difference...
Yup, it makes a significant difference to me. Back to piecing 9-patches. Out with the seam ripper to take off those bottom 4 rows. An easy fix, but I'm annoyed with myself.
The goal is to machine quilt it and bind it by the middle of the month, doable, but the kids start coming back to school today, so my time is no longer my own to use as I wish. Gonna make this a priority.

Quilting keeps us humble... sometimes it's more than other times. Love your heart design!
Pretty heart, I love the second version ;)
I have those learning/keep it humble moments on every quilt I make - you aren't alone. It's a lovely quilt you should be very proud of it.
What a great quilt design! Did you use 2 `1/2 inch squares?
The only thing I can say is that we all make mistakes. I think the best thing about hand sewing is that being rather slow, there is time to catch the mistakes ... and they are easier to un-sew. nice design idea!
Sorry about that. We've all done something like that before (and probably will again, too). Hope you get it fixed easily.
