Hi everyone,

I have made three quilts in the past year and am getting ready to assemble the three layers for my fourth. I swear I spend more time smoothing out the top, pinning it (or spraying it), just to flip it over and see puckers. So I remove all the pins and try it again, this time from the back. Smooth it over and over again, pin it, flip it, and now I have them on the top side! I dread having to go through this step because I waste so much time pinning and unpinning. I don't trust the spray!

I have a nice flat working surface, I start in the middle, I keep flattening it out little by little, pinning as I go along, and I still cannot get the back to be as even as the top.

Should I just live with the puckers and hope they won't be noticed once the quilting's done? What am I doing wrong?

Thanks! Debbie
