I have quilted my quilts in the past, and it is NOT my favorite things to do, and was wondering how to PREVENT getting TUCKS in the front and back of the quilt, and how to keep everything flat and smooth, front and back. Alot of the times, the quilt looks like it needs pressing and there are lumps and puffy sections, noticable on the back especially. I start quilting in the center and stitch outward, but the "stretchiness" is really evident in the back......any suggestions? There are just too many "gaps" of non stitching that are noticable to me..Thanks - Oh! I use my Janome 5000 or my Designer 1 for quilting...I need a long arm. huh?
