Great quilt. You have a lot of patience to have collected so many different blues for this project and it is just beautiful.

A beautiful quilt

Another way to fix a wavy edge is to stretch your binding as you put it on. If your binding is WOF, don't stretch too hard. Just a little more than taut. If the binding is length of fabric you can stretch it more.

i think the narrow border works well on this beautiful quilt. the wider borders that are so popular are somewhat of a modern idea. many vintage & antique quilts had very narrow or no border. i think wide borders are ok, a large picture frame appearance, but since quilts are on a bed, wrapped around a loved one or draped over something ..the large framed appearance is never seen again after the picture is taken. i really really love your quilt!
..tho i am sorry that you had to cut off that beautiful quilting!

Beautiful! It looks great. No one would know you meant it to have a wider border. It's perfect the way itis.

Beautiful results. I bet no one will notice any issues with it. We are our worst critics.
