I looked back at it. I wish I could get a really enlarged pic of it. It does make sense that it doesn't have to catch the binding to keep it down. I'm thinking maybe that it is not square or something which is why it keeps veering off? At the beginnng of the binding it is straight and looks great but then....

My bobbin thread is the color of the binding and the backing is a white background with multicolored circles. Maybe I'll try using the varigated thread that I quilted with so the stitching is not as noticeable.
