    I agree - finish the boarder and then square it up a bit more. I had to look really close to see the minor problems. It looks awesome and everyone will love it.

    I don't see anything wrong with it. When you look at it in person, do you think it is an optical illusion that it seems off square to you? Not visible in the picture.

    Yep. They're right. It looks good, it just needs finishing. Maybe a pink border on top and bottom like you have on the sides. Just two straight strips and the top could be done. Sandwich, quilt and bind and your Relay for Life team will love it. :)

    take the pink border off, add a narrow black border and then put the pink back on. Should even things up visually.

    When do you consider a quilt to be beyond salvageable?
