I'm brand new to this message board but I had a comment. First I love love love your light house quilt!!! It looks good to me. I like Elenor Burns 25 mile rule--Hang your quilt on the door and drive by going 25mph-if you can't see the flaws it's good! Also when you are curled up in a special quilt, there are no flaws.

Looks good...didnt know the 25 mile rule but for anything I make...I think it would have to be 50 miles. Only God is perfect, I think it is beautiful. I say just enjoy it.

My favorite trick when i can't get a quilt to be perfectly squared up is to not try to. I just cut all around the quilt in a wavy kind of design- almost like scallops- and then bind it. It looks " artistic". Not sure if it will work with your particular problem, but the quilt is beautiful and worth trying anything.

THANK YOU, everyone, for your suggestions, and especially your compliments!!! I have decided to just "suck it up" (as hubby says),
bind it as is, and put it back up on it's hanger. :lol:

Now I just have to find that darn blue fabric in the mountain of my stash! :P

That is beautiful! Is it applique or panels? What is the name of pattern or pattern please?

The blocks with the large designs (top and bottom on the left and center on the right) are panels. The other blocks are pieces that hubby and I put together in a random kind of way that we thought looked pretty good.

Thanks again for all the comments and encouragement!!! :lol: :lol:
