Yep. I saw a quilt once displayed in a shop that was so puckered from the every-half-inch quilting that you couldn't make out the piecing OR the quilting design.

Also a sample that an instructor had quilted every 1/16 inch or so that was stiff as cardboard.

I like a lighter quilting for bed quilts, medium/heavier for wall hangings.
