A baby quilt and I am frustrated--need suggestions.
I made this quilt for our newest great nephew. The pattern is from Lorna McMahon of Sew Fresh Quilts. The pattern is exceptionally well written and her measurements are perfect--if you want to make an exact duplicate. Because this was a second child, I wanted to add another baby giraffe. And I am sorry, but my giraffes need tails (something the pattern did not have). I am pleased with the changes I made.
I quilted it on my DSM, using random wavy lines. BUT here is what I am not pleased with--the quilting seems to have made the quilt 'pull together' and the binding is wavy on the sides--ore wavy than it looks in the photo. Did I quilt too tightly? Would it help if I removed every other line of quilting? Help!! I need your expertise.
