Beautiful quilt!!! If my wall hangings don't behave after coming out of the dryer, I iron the darn things. If the item is a bit bigger, I just steam it and let it dry.

If it is made from flannel that could be the problem. Also did you prewash everything or parts ? Since everything shrinks at different levels that could contribute to the wrinkling. All that thought out, I still LOVE it :lol: GREAT Job ! Go win a ribbon for us :wink:

I understand what you are saying though, that you didn't expect it to have wrinkles and you would like to do something about them. Usually wrinkles will form after washing if part of the quilt is not quilted at the same density as the rest of the quilt. It's hard to tell from pictures, but if that's the case then it might be possible to do some additional quilting (to tame the wrinkling) and then wash again. If not - well, it's still a beautiful quilt, just not what you expected.
Thanks, It's all 100% quilters cotton

Thank you all the quilting was all done, prior to assembly, with each 12 inch block.

Love the quilt and I don't mind wrinkling but I don't know how judges would feel. By the way, I have never heard of Onsaburg batting. Tell me more about it. If it were just Onsaburg by itself I know that it is bad to wrinkle and the wrinkles are very hard to get out.
