As crazy as it sounds, the seam allowances can be off on the inside and nobody will know and it won't make any difference either. If the seams don't line up perfectly on the outside what's the worst that can happen? I'll bet the building doesn't fall down and the sun comes up tomorrow.
I'm glad I read this before posting because it's exactly what I was going to post. Remember...it's the thought and effort and if the other woman is as you describe her, once she sees her work mingled with yours she will see the difference.
It's the thought that counts and what the children and teachers contributed that will be cherished.
After volunteering in an elementary school I learned very early that perfection wasn't the important factor in a lot of the posters I was asked to make with an overhead projector...
Do your best with you blocks and it's going to be beautiful.
Be sure to post a picture of the finished project...and unless the blocks are totally crooked and of very different sizes, the galloping horse effect will kick in.
