Awesome work... I really really like it... as for the border, just take it off and cut another one on the straight.... but I do like Patrice's suggestion though.

I have heard that if you spray the border with water and let it air dry, it may relax and not be so waffly.

Your quilt is absolutely so beautiful! Maybe it won't be so hard to get the border back on w/o stretching it. Would some kind of fabric stiffening spray help?

Shel::::good job and advice. That really makes sense. :)

Stunning quilt!! I agree with Patrice. good luck

can we have another picture now that you re-did? I knew you'd conquer that quilt....

I was at a quilt show and a lady had the same problem and an experienced quilter said to take off the last border then run a stitch thru the checkered border use that stitch to shear the fabric to fit the next border and she said it would be so gradual that it wouldn't be noticed

As a fellow sewer/quilter, I commiserate. I read where you took border off and put back on and your satisfied. I am so glad for you. If it were given to me, I would absolutely love it. :D
