Major thanks to both of you for the tips, advice and knowledge.
I've been cutting, measuring, and trying to fix this all morning. Not sure how I'm doing, and I'm afraid I won't know 'til it's all over. I've got what amounts to two full 'blocks' sewn together and they look MOSTLY straight. If you look close, you can tell where the bars connect that their off.
Have a look see:

And here's from farther back:

So I guess I'm going to leave those blocks as they are - I know they're off, but it IS my first quilt and, well, hopefully I can't get away with it. >_< Now I'm off to try to straighten up the rest of my blocks.
