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!
What I learned from the Quilting Board is to sew down one side and then reverse and sew up the other side which should help the problem you're having.
