    Of course they can. And you could try going back and adding differing widths to your sashing to make it sqaure up on the edges.

    Well, I like the colors! what if you took the rows apart and then off set them? Make it look like you meant to do that! I'm sure you'll figure something out. This board has some great ideas, give it a few minutes and you'll have a ton of ideas!

    Ok, I laughed too...but I'm so confused! I mean, that's a pretty huge difference in size from the top to the bottom! I usually have a bit of variance between rows, but never that big! (and I'll state for the record that I never square my blocks and am still working on my 1/4" seam on my new machine, lol)

    I love the colours, though! I hope you can make it work, it sure will be pretty!

    Oh, I love those blocks - you need to rescue it. How about adding to each to make them wonky & then square them up.

    Maybe work with the sashings to square it up. Those colors and pattern are too pretty to end up in a UFO pile.
