It really doesn't matter what she thinks when you see it out of alignment. If that is what makes you feel insync there is no harm in asking. All she can do is say yes or no. Then you know what you want for the future too. IMHO it is a beautiful quilt. Cutting the blocks to 9" was a good call. You hold the power in your hands. I think too setting it aside for several months is a good thing to do before making a cut that you might regret later on. This is from one OCD person to another. The hard part it to let it set for 3 months.
