Girlfriend, you rock! Absolutely stellar! Why is it an issue of not being square? Leave it! Fantastic job, any body can make a square you made a stunning piece of art. I am in love with it. As a teacher of abstract art and traditional quilt skins ( a phrase I coined in 1976) I say quilt it or frame it. Machine quilting might be easier than hand quilting, a personal preference. Buttons would make it cute, matted on dark charcoal grey makes it striking, quilted with heavy variegated thread (w/o white) and a 3/8" binding in multi red tones, well beam me up Scotti!! I suggest you pin it to a wall that you can walk by a few times in day light and low light, look at it w/o any idea at all and let it speak to you. And, and if you want to sell it, I could be interested. It is beautiful and your workmanship is spot on. Your Pinwheel came out the way it wanted too, not square and don't cha love it.
