Default panel-disaster or maybe not

Hi Quilters! This panel or quilt almost beat me.Several times I told my husband I would like to chunk it. The panel felt silky and it seemed no matter how careful I measured the more blocks I added the blouse-z-er or bubblier it looked. I usually don't quilt the QOV quilts myself, but in this case I did. I didn't want the QOV longarmer to have to see my disaster. I think though after I quilted it down, nobody should be the wiser. Anyway, it it what it is and doesn't blouse or bubble anymore.
The stars are the blocks like in my Gold Twin Stars quilt. The flag I made up just by seeing others and the panel is like the one in my Long May She Wave post. Thanks for looking at my projects.-Toogie
