Do you want some suggestions on how to make it straighter? It came out well! I can just see a few things that will help get a better finished look when you sew them together. the biggest thing is your white points don't look like they have a 1/4" seam allowance. but it may just be the way it is laying too.

Just measured, there is 1/4" it just doesn't look like it in the picture. The wonky part if the inside red and two white spots. So far all the blocks that I've started sashings on look good, so I don't think this one will be a problem.

I thought I might post these pictures to give you an idea of what I'm doing with your blocks. I put sashing on two sides to make them look like attic windows, then when I QAYG I'll be putting a thin black strip between them. I made more than I need, but took out the really bright ones. Now I'll let my DH see if there are any that he thinks doesn't go. He has a pretty good eye. They aren't in any order, just the way I put them down. But I thought I'd give you an idea of what your hard work is doing. Thanks Rhonda! :thumbup: :thumbup:

Oh, and we don't want to know what the rest of my room looks like since I had so much, STUFF, on the bed. LOL
