Looking at the picture now, I can see that FOUR of the bottles are wrong. I added sashing to them. I pressed them. Teenage Daughter laid them out in the order she wanted, and she didn't notice it either.
I can't tell you how much I don't want to take this quilt top apart to fix them. It's got to be done. Later. When I'm feeling healthier and less mad at myself.
The worst part? I messed up those bottles while I was still healthy.

ohhhh, that is a shame, we have all been there, I'm sure!
better now than after its quilted. it is lovely
I don't think there anything wrong in those nail polish bottle! it's grey nail polish in colorful bottles and the bottle is almost empty :) sometimes if you change how you look at things, the world is a better place ;)
I can't even see the mistake. It looks awesome so far.
I would never have seen it if you hadn't said it. I'm not a perfectionist. I had a quilt quilted with a mistake in it, and none of the quilt muggles can find it even after I tell them there is a mistake.
It just looks like a shadow on the bottom of the bottle, but I would be just like you and it would drive me crazy. You are exactly right, it is going to be absolutely gorgeous! I showed my daughter and she loved it. She doesn't even use nail but she liked how it was such a unique design for a quilt.
If it doesn't bother daughter I wouldn't worry about it. It's part of the story of the quilt. It turned out great. My thoughts will be with you if you decide to pick out the blocks. Feel better soon!
Ohh...I am so sorry but this post made me laugh! Good for him for spotting it. I like the comments above about grey polish and shadows but I know I would redo too...hope you feel better quick and it already looks fabulous to me, I just adore the yellow bottles!!
I wouldn't have noticed. When you said something and I searched I thought those were the bottles that needed to be shaken after they have sat for a while. I think it is wonderful just as it is.

Well, it took me reading the whole post and all of the comments to realize what you thought was wrong. I know it would probably drive me batty to not fix it but, honestly, it isn't that big of a deal on the photo...
Feel better soon. I've had the creeping crud this year and I really don't want it again. Hope you are kind to yourself.
It IS gorgeous, and you just get to work on it a bit longer than you thought. :-) It really is a showstopper!
I did see three with the shadow (top) at the bottom. To that I say different brand, different bottle - individuals may vary. It'll be a fun story to tell.

I'm with the others, I had to study it, then read comments, then go back and look and finally I found them. Boy oh boy, I do like the different brand different bottles! It looks awesome!
It's a fun quilt. It took me a bit too to find where the errors were. I'd fix it too, it would bother me too much not to. It's an awesome quilt!
Those are the bottles with glitter-everyone knows glitter settles!
OK, I just had to figure out what you were saying because from what I could see they were all alike. I had to copy the picture, take it into Word and then enlarge it before I could find the mistakes. Then I laughed and felt bad for you. However, I am keeping this for when my great granddaughter gets older so I can make one of these for her. Thanks.
