    Thank you all for your reply's. I will resew. After this long another day or two won't matter in the long run. So many firsts for me in this quilt I would be really upset if it came apart. I was just so excited to finally get it done.

    the stitching will come loose with repeated washing in sections not quilted over, you wouldn't want that, so I would resew

    I would resew as well. It should go pretty fast because you already have it secured by the first stitching. I wouldn't take out the first stitching.

    Re-sew. You'll be happier in the end.

    I am happy to say I have resewn it. It went much faster then I thought it would. Now to add the last border and I'm done. Thank you all.

    Oh, I am glad you have done the awful resewing and can move on. You are so close to being finished! Now that has got to be a good feeling.

    I would definitely sew it but I would pull out all of the invisible thread and start again.
