Default Can this marriage be saved?

I made this rather muddy quilt thinking it would be much cuter when done... I know what I did wrong in the sewing -- I must have sewn each strip the same direction, at least most of the time. Now it varies nearly 2" from side to side and is obviously twisted.

I don't know how to tell those seams which, if I ripped them out and sewed the other direction, would help fix this. Most of the distortion seems to be one one side; I even thought about cutting 8-10" off the width, but am not sure even that would help.

I would love to rip out some seams and magically save this mess, but I'm not sure I can. Has anyone else done something like this and been able to save it?
