I think you're probably right if I had layered my fabric closer together so each top layer would hold the others down. <sigh>. After looking back at the tutorial and some other I realize that I spread mine out too much and they very easily pull out. I may try lifting some layers up a bit and apply some fabri-tac.

It's not difficult at all, just a little time consuming (at least it was for me).
