Here is a D9P table runner I put together. Is there a way to fix this so I can put a border on it?
I'm thinking I'll have to take it apart and try it again? Yes? |
You could simply trim the edges and bind as is. The design will remain off, but it's really not terribly noticeable since there is low contrast between the fabrics.
Did you pin before sewing the sections together? You have to match seams when you sew. Either some of the pieces stretched or you were not consistent on your cutting accuracy and/or keeping a 1/4" seam throughout. |
It looks like some of the strips and blocks are cut a little on the wonky side. When they are not all cut the exact same it will cause your edges to be off. If it bothers you then redo it. If not then even the edge out and finish it.

It's very pretty. I would probably take it apart & match the seams, then it would come out OK. It has happened to all of us.

Welcome to my world.. ! my blocks are always off or wonky..

It looks to me like the block on the right in the second picture is a little smaller than the rest, I would redo that block. It is a beautiful quilt!!

however, it does look as though part of your problem might be that the seams do not lay flat, they have tucks or puckers in them. The seams where you joined the blocks together. |
I would make a new block for the one that is too small.

number 1 & 3 I would likely trim and move ahead. However, I would take #2 apair and try to match the seams a bit more accurately.
It get easier, or so I am told. |
