Pins are helpful to align intersections, and prevent wavy borders. And I have concluded that my stash and quilt bucket list will outlive me no matter how rapidly I can complete quilts, so there is little pressure to finish. If the points will be cut off, then the seam is resewn—if not, it gets eased in and steam pressed.

This works for me too.

Depends on the recipient and/or if it bothers me.

It would depend on the use of the quilt, how I am going to quilt it. If you long-arm yourself you can make up a lot of difference.

Try my very best and move on.

My reply would be, what machine did you use in the past, and what machine are you now using, sometimes that may be the problem with the seams not matching.

My fudge factor gets higher, the longer I've been working on a quilt....

I have found that the weight of the fabric has a lot to do with the finished block size. Light weight fabric seems to stretch more and the blocks are larger than heavier weight fabric. I won't even buy light weight fabric for a quilt anymore because of that problem.

Very interesting question. The small group I quilt with once a week playfully chastised me this week about the number of times I "unsew" seams because they aren't perfect. Doesn't matter if it's a donation quilt-whatever, can't help myself. I wouldnt mind if my work were perfect...

I am pretty fussy with a low tolerance, but it does depend on when I find the problem and how long it would take to finish it. My last finish had a huge tuck on the back - my first ever. I finally decided to hand stitch it down - thank goodness it was a swirly print. The Labyrinth on the machine now as a least one spot where a high contrast seam didn't line up. My mind says I am done piecing and to just quilt it. My son won't care.
