Default Help for a newbie (re: stretching)

I need to put sashing around this but I've stretched it out in some places. Pic for reference:

I know I've pulled too hard on pieces cut on the bias and I'll definitely be more careful in the future. This is my first quilt top so I'm learning quite a bit. You can see how some of the blocks around the edges are bowing out. My question is, is it too stretched out to add the further sashing? Do I need to redo something? How can I ensure that when I'm adding the sashing, the stretched out pieces aren't distorting how straight the sashing should be? I am having a hard time putting into words what I need to know, but thought I'd try.

Thanks!<button id="tw_schedule_btn" style="padding: 4px 6px; position: absolute; left: 141px; top: 840px; background-image: linear-gradient(rgb(255, 255, 255), rgb(240, 240, 240)); border: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); color: rgb(95, 95, 95); cursor: pointer; font-weight: bold; text-shadow: rgb(255, 255, 255) 0px 1px; white-space: nowrap; border-top-left-radius: 3px; border-top-right-radius: 3px; border-bottom-right-radius: 3px; border-bottom-left-radius: 3px; font-size: 11px; z-index: 8675309; display: none; background-position: initial initial; background-repeat: initial initial;">Schedule</button>
