Question..How can I know what a scant 1/4 inch is?? I will try and post a pic of my problem.[ATTACH=CONFIG]519854[/ATTACH]
A scant or generous seam won't help much here. What you need to do is adjust the width of the strips. I think Bearisgray had the right answer. The diagonal strips need to be wider, OR the horizontal strips need to be narrower. It would probably be easier to adjust the horizontal strips.
