    You did a beautiful job piecing it. Just make the all sides the same and bind it. It will be a new shape, and who says it wasn't supposed to be that way. Don't tell anyone you made a mistake and accept all the compliments you will get.

    Honey, bind it an keep on truckin'! You will learn not to fret so much over little mistakes. After it's done, only you will know it's "not right".

    It looks great!

    Once you bind this, lay it out on the table with a pretty center piece, no one is going to be able to tell at all. Your piecing is so well done that it is what others will see first, or second, depending on your centerpiece. Finish it because you will be happy you did :)
