Love the tape to measure them. What a great idea.

I think it's cute! It looks like the ABC area is more heavily quilted than the side with the measuring tape. That can contribute to it being wavy looking. Have you tried to block it? There are many tutorials out there - Google it. Basically, you wet down the quilt, pin it to something (a board, the carpet, etc.) then let it air dry that way.

That was my suggestion. Than I heard you could put a rod or board at the bottom to hold it straight.

Cool! Someone is getting a gift that will have a lifetime of memories!

It looks to me as though the binding is making it ripple. I usually hold my binding quite 'taut' when sewing it onto the quilt. I just finished a scrap quilt and didn't do this and it is wavy. I am going to take it off and rebind it.
