Well, since you asked........ :)
My problem is my second quilt top is 3/8 of an inch out of square...I hate to cut off 3/8 of an inch on the one side because it will show on my square on the outside, they won't all look the same size (before borders). So I am perplexed as to what to do about this. I really thought I did a good job with the cutting and sewing of the squares, but it's the size of a double bed, and I guess it must have gotten away from me a bit. So it's hard to lay out and get square. Any suggestions will be greatly appreciated!! Thank you all so much!

How bad does it show, Chili? Doesn't SOUND like a lot and once it's spread over the bed, it won't be laying flat? If it looks ok from a galloping horse, I'd just live with it and move on to the next one!
