I just read this on artistic threadworks. Lots of great articles there. "If you have a VERY dense or VERY large design and you want to use two stabilizer thicknesses, then lay them at 90-degree angles to each other. "

If you stay with the lighter fabric use double stablizier and even possibly a WSS on the top to keep the stitches on top. Good job for a beginner and it would be pretty in the middle of a throw pillow, you wouldn' t noticet the puckers which aren't bad anyways.

rnkdistributing (Floriani) has a workbook on stabliziers and it may help. Even if you don't use thier products it will tell you the different types of it.
