One "help" for wall hangings is to put another sleeve at the bottom of the quilt/hanging. Put a stick in there, about the thickness of a thin yardstick. That keeps it much flatter, even when it's not.
You prevent volcanoes by squaring up each segment of the star before sewing together.

I like all my quilts to fold as you do. If they don’t, I look for the problem and try to fix it.
