I think it looks great! Like some have said it also will shrink some in the wash

When I started my first, I had wrinkles in mine too. I would just wash it and it should work itself out. Mine did. Just my opinion.

It looks okay to me. We are always our own worst critics. I think you will be just fine after it has been washed.

Are you doing the quilting with a walking foot? Can you adjust the pressure or height of the pressure foot on your machine?

I mostly quilt with high loft poly batting. I love the the poofiness. For charity quilts I am using warm and white, it is very thin. I wish it came thicker.

Yes Playswithcolor, I am using a walking foot and yes, I lightened the presser foot pressure a bit. Thanks everyone; I've decided I've gone to far to consider re-doing it so am going to soldier on and hope it looks okay when the quilting is completed all over. Maybe with all the quilting and the binding on things will look better. I doubt the recipient is going to notice it......at 3 years of age there are more important things to do with your time!!!!!

It's beautiful and I'd not unsew a stitch. Keep calm and quilt on!
