This is the methods that I use. When sewing Y type seams you do not sew clear to the edge of the fabric but stop at the 1/4 inch point. There are some areas on the back of your quilt top where seams join. If you unstitch a few stitches you then can make the intersection of fabric lay much flatter. There are several threads regarding this topic available.
