Re: Three Dudes jelly roll
If you have not quilted it and it is just the top, you and another person can take the quilt and pick it up at opposite corners and pull. Then pull the other set of corners. Then iron and pull again. This is what the ladies at the store recommended and it worked when my jelly roll quilt was not square.

I know this won't help now, but next time, do a stay stitch about 1/8" from edge of block all the way around.
Also, the stretchy piece/block is on the bottom when stitching so the feed dogs can help take up the extra.
Sometimes they stretch even when not on a bias. I just finished a flannel quilt for DH and it was cut on the straight of grain and I still had trouble with stretching. Sometimes you just have to pin a lot and square up a lot.Vonnie
