Thank you to all who responded. Yes, maniac quilter 2, sew biz girl, betty gee, and paper princess, i did find some inaccurate seams and did not measure or square as I stitched. Clmay, I sew with a 1/4" foot and should have been more aware my seam edges did not 100% line up. G-ma Kay and blueheavenfl, you both seem to have a solution I could immediately use to salvage this quilt. I think I shall soon be digging through leftover strips for keyboard options. And k_jupiter you made me laugh out loud for taking myself and my piecing skills (or lack of them) way too seriously. Great answers!
