oh for sure I would take it out! I had queen size MLA for me, got it back and I just sat down and had a good cry! It was was so twisted the corners came out 3 inch's up the side. I trimed as best I could and put the binding on, was never happy with it so took the binding off and took out the manchine quilting. Found out the batting and backing fabric were really bad quality so tossed them both out, sent it to my sister and she re-did it for me. Oh what a differance! Now I can even use it. I say go for it, rip, rip, rip!
