Sometimes, you just have to do a bit of seam ripping and tighten up some of the seams. When I am quilting (on my longarm), I have been known to just sew the ripple down if it is found on an outside border, but it's hard to hide that out in the middle. Would you mind sharing a picture of the infamous quilt? "smile" fyi....I have a couple of those that I need to whip into shape.
Edited to add: Some people have been known to applique something cute over an obvious problem and the problem goes away. Would that be something that would work? I am thinking of something like a free floating flower with a ruffled edge.
When sewing clothes, sometimes, you have to ease fabric in. I don't think that would work on something that is supposed to be flat. It's most often done on curved seams when sewing clothes.
