Problems with Stabilizer
[ATTACH=CONFIG]487216[/ATTACH]
Does anyone have any suggestions to get the wrinkles out besides trying to pull everything apart & start from scratch?
The center is 32x45". It is a used cotton fabric on top that is nearly thread-bare so I fused it together with a heavy cotton muslin. Everything was pre-washed & honestly it looked fine when I just finished pressing the layers together. When I started sewing the borders on there was a little bit of wrinkling, but I figured I could work with it. As the night has progressed, the wrinkling has become more & more pronounced & honestly I cannot figure out why. I tried re-pressing the fabric & that didn't work. I tried to see if I could block it, but that didn't work either. I don't see any bubbles in either fabric so I cannot figure out for the life of me why this is happening. I've never used stabilizer for anything except small applique (under 12") so perhaps there is some kind of tip/trick that I needed to employ when working with a larger area.
It doesn't seem like this is something I can just quilt out. Ideas? please.
