Hey everyone. Asking for some advice. I am working on my first quilt. I have made many mistakes, but the biggest is sewing my quilt up (birthing method) first before quilting. I was going to tie it, but did not like the looks, so decided to breakdown and spend $45.00 on a walking foot. It works great. But after making all of my verticle SIDs, realized my backing was lose and puckering. I started in the middle and worked my way out and yes I had used safety pins. When I got to the edge of the quilt, my lining stuck out lower than the top. (daughter borrowed my camera or I would include pics.) I thought about adding a border or binding to even edges out. I am feeling guilty, but not wanting to rip it all apart. What should I do? It is kingsize, and 14x14 tee shirt squares.
