Hi all, I just finished a table runner,the pattern I have used many times before, and this one tends to ripple along the edges.
Can any one offer some suggestions as to what I did wrong and how I can corect it? Thanks, Bonnie |
Pictures would be helpful. ;-)

Can you post a picture or a link to the pattern? It would help us a lot to see it :D:D:D

I had that happen once when I used a cheap fabric. Learned my lesson.

Maybe the grain of fabric.The cross grain pulled to tight.

Difference in quilting density between the center and the edges can cause this. Also if your outer edges next to binding are bias edges...same thing. Pull edge horiz and vertically...gently. One side should resist...this is the straight of grain side. If both ways give, you are on bias all around.

If your pattern has triangles on the edges the bias could have stretched or different weights of fabric don't agree to live well next to each other may be a problem!
