Make sure you starch the heck out of the material before cutting (if you are not done cutting). Sometimes the bias on the HST can stretch.

Second - watch your seam allowance. I've had this same problem with this pattern and usually the seam went slightly "Wonky" in the area where the overage occurs. It only takes one or two threads width difference in the seam to add up to that amount of difference on the edge.

Love your use of the prints and the green trellis/twists.

Are you sure you made the diagonal seam of the dark green and foral right? If this seam is off, it won't allow you to match up the other junctions.

I'm thinking the seams for the corner diagonals (triangles) might be just a tiny bit too wide/deep. Try making them about 1/16 inch narrower. (or a bit less)

I agree with the pinning advice. Gosh that's beautiful fabric!

"Ditto". You might also want to check the measurements of each block to see if you are a little bit off and then you can fix it. I would guess it may be your seam allowance. This pattern is much more difficult than it looks. You have picked VERY lovely fabrics for this quilt.

Thanks everyone...I got it...they finally line up. What did it was starch, PINS (I was trying to sew without pinning. afraid it would poke holes in the fabric) and put a governor on my foot pedal. If you don't sew with "the pedal to the metal" things work lots better.

Glad you worked it out, I did my fair share of unpicking when I made that pattern

pin- right at the intersection as described above- then start at the intersection and stitch out toward the outside-instead of outside in.

Sometimes when that happens to me it is because I made the seams to wide somewhere in the block or on the piece when I sewed it to the other piece of fabric.
