With the wall laying flat, measure diagonally from corner to corner both ways. Adjust the wall until these measurements are exactly the same. At that point you have a square wall. Either sheet the wall or run a piece of lumber diagonally from corner to corner nailing it to each stud, this will hold the wall square when it comes time to stand it up. Hope this helps

My shed frame is 10 by 12 and after putting it together the squareness is not perfect. When I measure diagnolly corner to corner the measurements are off. Should I fix it before going Fwd?

Yes, most definitely. If you don't square the frame before proceeding, you will have a mess when you try to add the walls and the roof. When you frame it, drive some stakes to the ground and against the frame to keep it from "tweaking" as you continue the work.
