I cut the side crooked. :cry: Makes me sick to my tummy.
I didn't really deserve all the nice compliments you all gave me.

Line the ruler up and cut it again. Bind it and finish it up. I think that it will still look great!! Every project is a learning experience.

I 5th that - and the colors are wonderful. It will look great when bound and on a table.

I would just line it up again, trim the "rough edges" off, maybe put a little border on it and bind it.

When you have it on your table, trust me -- no one is going to be measuring it to make sure it is exact. :O) It will be beautiful!

Oh don't stress over it too much (heh, I know, I do the same thing...). Honestly, follow the advice of these ladies, and even if it doesn't come out "perfect" it'll still be lovely.
