I also saw that maybe you have the binding on. If you do you can never get it right unless you do as renee765 says. It is fast and makes the quilt softer. Backs have to be stretched taut,batting on then smoothed as good as possible then top smoothed and either pinnned like the back or use guilting glue or baste. Now this is if you are on the floor like I do. Some do it on a table top. But I don't have one I can do that on. If it was me I would just tie it. lot of work taking binding off. Your work is fantastic. Don't let this discourage you.
