I think it is just beautiful. There is no "right" way really. If I do something "wrong" I figure I might change it next time but for this quilt that was the way I WANTED it to look. I have one in there on the bed now halfway put together, it's a little crooked, for a 6 year old who isn't going to see past the bright Care Bears on the fabric anyway so I'm proceeding, crooked and all. It's all a learning experience. Next time I will measure more carefully. You did a great job, it's just beautiful.
