There are two of them in this picture.

Great quilting! I, too, have had to do some creative quilting to hide fullness. Small tucks are sometimes necessary and once quilted, you are hard pressed to find them. A little fullness will settle down with no tucks, but a lot of fullness may require little tucks. Good luck!
