Thank you everyone for your advise. I had the same problem and ended up taking out every FM stitch on a baby quilt. I was on a quick deadline and did not need that frustration.

I found it was indeed my speed. I was hurrying the stitching. The front looked swell,but the back pretty crummy. Pick, pick,pick and then redo the whole thing. S-L-O-W-L-Y and kept the speed consistent and watched the curves. Take time and try not to change your rhythm and speed. I finished the FM quilting, checked the back and HUGE improvement. You all gave great advise. I suspect that we have all been there. :lol:


P.S. I did get it finished on time and had time to enjoy a good old movie while I finished the binding.
