Im doing my memory quilt and I just finished 3 of the squares. They all 3 have (2) sash borders each 1". They dont line up when I go to put them togeather. How can I fix this. I tried to make all the pictures 8x10 then I added the (2) sashes but they dont line up. Is there anyway I can fix this. I was so careful when I was sewing to.

Could you post a pic, so we could see the problem?

Lots and lots of pins. I use IBC Silk pins, pin the heck out of my problem blocks, and then sew (carefully) over the pins. It keeps the fabric from shifting while I quilt.
