You sure brought back some memmories of my first quilt. I was so excited to get it finished I never even thought about it being square. It ended up with some lumps and crooks here and there and it has been loved to pieces (literally). Just finish your quilt and love it as your very first quilt. It is your first step to greater things and 20-30 years from now you will have fond memmories of making this quilt.
