Actually if you had the strip stick you could probably straighten the whole thing out by just repressing. I use mine when I have to press long straight seams like that. http://thestripstick.com/

or you can do the lazy way that I confess I might, depending on how noticeable my soluution would be - trim some off each side to make it as square as possible, quilt and bind. Sometimes 'good enough' actually is.
Hope I don't get drummed off the board by the quilt police for my heretical suggestion. lol

I think that is an outstanding idea! What I have done so far is mark the sides so that the 2" squares appear straight, then I planned to cut it off and, if it doesn't fold up exactly squarely, the receiver will probably not realize it's cause it's wider at the top than the bottom. I will seriously investigate cutting it into squares, tho, before I finish it.
