Hi Dina. Are you sure, as the quilter above mentioned, might be stretching your backing just a little too tight?? I always told people that you want it not as tight as a tom tom (drum) but snug enough so when you move your hand over the backing, the fabric doesn't move. If you unclip an area, does the fabric sort of pop back?? Usually you can tell if the backing is too tight by looking at the back of the quilt after pinning. If you have stretched the backing too tight, you should be able to see a bit of puffiness on the back. Hang in there !!
