Jillaine, It's heartbreaking, but has happened to all of us at one time or another.

You could try this, it will change the look somewhat, but at least it may save you money and time.

Measure each of the legs of all the triangles, establish a mean measurement. Let's say is 14", for example.

1)Cut 24 (1") strips of the most neutral fabric 14".
2)Sew a strip to the long legs of each triangle, carefully pinning to make it fit the strip.Some will have to be stretched, some eased.
3) In the center, sew 1 strip to 1 length, then sew another triangle to that strip, and repeat.

I did a quick scale in EQ to give you a visual. It's going to be work but less than ripping out all those squares. The pink strips are the adjustment.
