Fabric Won't Lay Flat
Hello everyone,
I am working on my first quilt and am trying to lay my material flat so I can cut out the applique pieces. However, I can't seem to get the material to lay flat (please see attached photo). The "ripples" are worse on one side than the other, but covers pretty much the entire piece of fabric.
The fabric is not wrinkled, and I have washed and starched the material.
It is a Robert Kaufman Kona 100% cotton fabric and was purchased from an online quilt shop, so fabric quality shouldn't be an issue.
Any idea what caused this and how to correct it? I'm afraid if I use this material right now, the applique will not lay flat on the background.
Thanks for any and all help!
