I've reworked the pieces - with pins - and easing them together, with much better results!
My MIL is always telling me to press my seams and use Fabric Finish spray (like a light starch) Would the dampness of the spray make the fabric stretch a bit? Should I dry-iron only?
Yay, I did something right today! Glad to have helped. You really don't need the pins though. I have never used starch before sewing, unless the whole piece needed to be whipped into submission. Using steam can make some fabric shrink, so a dry iron, without starch would be my best advice to you.
