hard lesson learned :(
the puckers on the back of this quilt are TERRIBLE.
i sandwiched it in less than ideal circumstances and because i had other projects on the go and it was the middle of winter i used the pins i had instead of going to buy more and out of sloth didn't baste it properly with thread.
the consequences are obvious.
good thing this quilt looks okay from the top and the person receiving it as a gift won't mind.
also, it will be at someone else's house so i won't have to live with it....
so here's today's quilting handslap: sandwich properly or suffer the puckers.

I had puckers in the back of a quilt that was filled with high loft polyester batting. Thankfully, the puckers kind of disappeared into all that puff, but I still wonder if they will tear apart and break the quilting thread.
