The author knew of the idea that some Amish/Mennonite quilters purposely included blocks sewn wrong way in their quilts. She had noticed a block with a "mistake" and asked the quilter if she'd put it in on purpose. The quilter stopped, looked at the quilt, then smiled. She responded that she hadn't even noticed that she'd stitched it wrong way. I thought that was interesting.
