Looks good to me. If not happy with size, use borders to get shape you want. Me, I would quilt it, bind it and call it DONE.

I cut 3"( sorry not 4") rows across the ends of my very long quilt until I had enough to go around it for a piano key border. I put a narrow border on first to divide it. I do not have a picture because it w
as a wedding gift but it changed the dimension back to a more square shape. I was very pleased with quilt and just did a meander all over. |
Looks good to me...even with feet!...just add the two borders and it will make a good size quilt.

When I made mine during a jelly roll race at my LQS that's how they turned out. We then squared them up and added a 2 1/2" boarder and a 5" boarder. My Dd liked it so much she asked if she could have it. Of course I couldn't refuse her. Yours looks great. I didn't even know you could do them horizontally. All the directions I've seen would make them be vertical stripes like yours.

There is absolutely nothing wrong with your quilt and for heaven's sake keep the ripper in the drawer! Just made two of these. I turned it with stripes horizontal, added a 1" black border and then a wider border. These are great!

NO NO NO, don't rip...even the sides, put a couple borders on it and it will be just fine. I've made several, even a small one for a baby, and they all look different...You can either do the piecing like you did, or you can angle the piecing, either way if fine. I like the different looks you get from different rolls..

evidently we were born under the same sign! i made mine vertical also. i'm adding a narrow border and then reversing the final strips for the outer border.

What are the dimensions of the quilt as it is now? You can use it as is for a throw or add borders to it as people have already suggested. It's very pretty.

I think it looks great!
