I say (as Tim Gun says on Project Runway) "make it work"... it is barely noticable really, and once you bind it, I am sure your friend will not notice. Lovely quilt by the way... :-)

"What do I do to fix this....it is a gift for a friend!!!!!"
No problem with one border being a tad less than the others, it's so pretty who will notice but you. Sometimes we make ourselves crazy of little details, I know as I've been there done that. |
1/4" is nothing - don't worry about it. After you bind, it will not be noticeable.
Very cute quilt by what I can see! |
I would say OH WELL!! Just trim it and bind it.
Not one of my quilts were ever right. LOL |
This really isn't very bad at all. Just the normal ammount of shrinkage that happens with quilting. I always make my outer border a few inches larger than I want my finished border to be so I can trim it down after it is quilted. Hope this will help for future quilts. I can't see any bunching in the photos so it can't be that bad. One suggestion for you though, don't point out anything that you "Think" is a mistake to ANYONE, they don't care and probably will never notice unless you show them. They will love the quilt for being a handmade gift with lots of love sewed into it!
peace :D |
