Brookmarie19, I THINK the rectangles in step 3 will be attached to the flying geese in step 2...if they are ... keep the flying geese on the bottom..the 1/8" extra should ease into the rectangle...you may have to pin on both ends and the center to distribute the extra evenly..after the quilt has been assembled and quilted you won't notice it. Have you ironed not pressed the flying geese and maybe stretched the base? You might be able to spritz the base (colored) then just press it flat on with the iron...when you dampen fabric really well it kind of pulls itself back then you press it so it remains that way... try one and see if it helps..
I didn't measure correctly and am now ripping out 48 of the geese on one side...UGH!
