I'm so sorry that this caused you distress, but in looking at your pictures, the washed quilt has that cuddly, lovey look. It appears as if the quilt shrank but the binding didn't. My favorite quilt shop owner says that a quilt is not done until it's washed -- and she washes all her quilts before hanging them in her store!
At a glance, I think the quilt is lovely. If it were me, I might try blocking it - gently rinse and spin-dry, then lay it out on a sheet on the carpet; pinning if necessary to get it square and allow it to dry. If after that it was still bothering me, I may just remove the binding and reapply it. But that's my obsessive/compulsiveness talking... :oops:
