Hey Monica, There was a tudorial by the Missori Star Co. I saw yesterday. Jenny said when that happens, just put a little starch and a little steam and it will lay flat. What you may want to do in this case if it still won't lay flat, is to pick out the last blade you sewn on. Cut that in half or 1/4 off then sew and see what happens. But if you already put the circle on, that ok. just use the starch and the steam. It will be ok.
