did you pin them together before you sewed them ?? I usually find the center of both pieces i want to pin together and start pinning from there(middle) then keep finding centers as i i go...when all pined together...only then do i sew.....works well everytime...

What's going on? Hope someone has an idea of how to fix, short of going to buy more backing.

I've really enjoyed this board and have gotten lots of tips and ideas, but for the life of me, I don't know what to do about this.

Wishing all a blessed Easter!
