I didn't see my mistake until I sat down at 5:15 to watch the weather report last night. I was staring at the quilt and I saw a light square where it shouldn't have been. I finally figured out I sewed in the bottom half strip wrong end up. I didn't notice it in the photo yesterday.
Here is yesterday's photo and the mistake is at the bottom right, 3rd strip in. I wasn't in any hurry to get the unpicking done, so maybe it will happen today.
I have 2 rain gauges, one on the east side of my house which I check most often. The other is on the west side and most storms come in from the west. I had 1.6" in the front gauge from Sunday plus another quarter inch yesterday morning for 1.85", and 2.5" in the back gauge, which I think is more accurate. That's the most rain we've had in 2 days for a long, long time. We only had 1.6" of rain for the whole month of May.

If you hadn't pointed it out I'll bet no one would have noticed! Fortunately it was at a corner, so an easy fix.
It's good you caught it and it is in a fairly easy place to fix. We got a sprinkle here this morning which just added to the humidity. We might get some scattered showers later. I guess i am going to have to water the plants tonight for sure.
The location immediately jumped out to me but it took me awhile to see the fix for it. I’m looking forward to starting a TAW in July following your tutorial.
Hooray for all that rain! Glad you found the oops while this is still a quilt top and not after it was already quilted.
I had a time finding it even after you told us where your mistake was. When I finally saw it ~ I was so proud of myself. 🤭 have fun with your seam ripper…
Beautiful quilt !
Good you found your oopsie and that it was an easy fix, Wanda--
you have a good "eagle eye" at work there;))). This is such a beautiful piece...
No rain here as yet--not one drop of it!! ;(((
77 here this evening with a wind that is still chilly and quite breezy...
Hugs, Julierose
I'm not sure if I would have spotted that. I have done that too and usually I don't notice it but someone looking at the blog does.
Good spotting, and an easy fix. Looking so good.
That was a tricky one to spot, it took me a moment or two to work it out!! Happy you found it.
That was hard to find even when you told us where to look! But glad you caught it before the quilting.
