You can try ironing your piece w/ steam & a pressing cloth sometimes that works for me, but I also agree use a stabilizer and loosen up your stitches.

Hey Craftiladi! I'm in Fairview - about 2.5 hours-ish north of you! I have a son going to SUU right now!!! We're practically neighbors!!! ) What do you guys mean to loosen up my stitches? I want them all close so you can't see the background fabric. Sorry, I don't understand . . .
