I'm not sure if I am viewing this correctly, but from what I see it looks to me like the first two images on the left on the top row are not in line with the rest on that row. Those two seem to be higher on their left side than the rest of the blocks in that row. Also the first block on the second row seems to be closer to the edge than any of the other blocks on the left edge in each row. Maybe it is just how the picture is and perhaps at a wonky angle, or is it just me. I just love your pattern of this quilt. Hopefully you can get your problem corrected. I'm anxious to se the finished product, please be sure to share.

Gee, I know I am needing new glasses, but I must really be blind. lol. After looking at each row and the picture several times, I finally see what you must be talking about- this was difficult to see with the white behind the quilt top. The bottom row is just a tad shorter on the side than the rest of the rows. I agree with Dunster, measure that row and see if it measures the same as the others.

Can't see the problem either! However, before unpicking, Ihave heard that small differences can be sorted by 'blocking' a quilt. Never tried it but read about it on Leah Day's site, the brilliant FMQ lady. She has heaps of tips like that.

I agree. I would NOT rip it all apart. Just finish it up and donate it. A friend has given me the name of an organization that distributes quilts to those in need in America that have survived Mother Nature's wrath. After those tornadoes ripped thru the south, I have got to get some quilt tops off to them. PM me and I will try and find the info.
