I just discovered that I missed the stitching on one of the triangles in month 1. Not sure
how to fix it. Any ideas?

It would be helpful if you could post a photo of the mistake. If you only missed the stitching for a small area, I would recommend patching it up by hand. I will be easier to hide the stitching in the seam allowance that way.
Good luck! -
Of course, I didn't even think about posting a photo. It's a little blurry, but you can see where I missed a whole
stitch line, nearly.

LOL! I don't know how you managed that. But never mind, you can fix it. I would sew it by hand using ladder stitch, which you would also use to close the seam on a pillow or stuffed animal. It will be completely invisible. I found a good tutorial on YouTube:

I would recommend a smaller stitch than she uses in the video - I think she has made the stitches large just for demonstration purposes. Good luck!Comment

Ladder stitch sounds the answer to me to.
