Don't get me wrong it does but "very little" if it does.BUT not the curling crazy stuff. The Minky works well with these quilts too because of size. There is no piecing of it. If you are quilting on a domestic machine when quilting you usually work from the center out if I remember right and I would think the "stretches" would be a problem. But with just going around the edges, maybe make sure the same stretch goes the same direction for both top and back and possible a stabilizer. To be honest outside of using a stabilizer I don't know how to change that outcome and would love to hear what anybody else has been successful with.
The only other thing I can think of is Pin Pin Pin Pin.

I used the minky WOF of 60" for the length of the quilt, so I think the problem lies in the width being the stretchiest and quilting it from one end to the other.Pinning and using stabilizer are also great advice. I will take it all. Thanks bunches!
