Hi there, I made this quilt and had no problems until I started quilting it. The bottom left hand corner kepted bunching up. By the time I was finished quilting, I had puckers and I don't know for sure why. My theory is because the material was on a diagonal that maybe I should have done something different to the borders? You can't tell in the pictures very well, but they are there. Tell me what you think, please.

Not sure about the puckers, but the quilting looks great!

Did you press before you quilted? Pretty quilt.

I agree with SuziC, your quilting is so even. Wow. Did you do it on a long arm?

SueDor

Thank you! Yes I have a longarm, HQ 16 and as many quilts that I have done, it was worth every penny.

SueDor

No I didn't press it. Could that be the problem?

When I long arm quilts that are made on the diagonal, I first make sure they line up squared on the sides.
then take a ruler (one I use for cutting strips 6X24)
and gently run it from the take up bar down towards you.
Work the fullness gently to the sides.
You can master this quilt... The quilting looks great!
Enjoy the art.
