I, too, think it will quilt out! Also, a steam iron and damp pressing cloth (hope you washed your fabrics, or do not try this) can often work wonders. Your quilt is beautiful!!!

I would not unsew at this stage of your quilt. Once you start, you will notice other spots everywhere that need a little fixing and before you know it, you will be reworking the whole thing ! Its like finding a smudge on the wall, clean it and you notice another and before you know it, you'll be washing the whole wall. Hopefully you can use some of the basting techniques from the video and work it out.
Very pretty quilt and I know you have put a lot of work into it. Best of luck.

I really like the color selections. I wouldn't take any part of it out. It looks wonderful the way it is. It is a very beautiful quilt.
