Stacked beetles fundraiser/auction

I really don't know the name of this panel I added the blue border and the wide polka dot to but this is the second one for the fundraiser/auction. I free motioned or stipple quilted on a regular (small throat) sewing machine. The front looks good but my back has a few 'bubbles' would you rip it out or leave as it is? I hope you can see it enough to tell. Also, it is squared up. I know it doesn't seem so, the way I have it pinned on the curtain rod and also, the chevron ran at an angle.

Those are the cutest little bugs! They just say happy and will bring someone lots of happiness too. Good luck with the event.

it doesn't seem that the "bubbles" are serious enough to warrant unstitching the quilting.
once it's washed the first time, they will blend in nicely.

I agree with PJ, once it is washed you won’t even notice it. Such a cute quilt and great fabric selection.

That is a really cute panel and I think you should leave well enough alone. Once you start taking out 'bubbles' they start to move and increase the amount that needs to be 'adjusted'.
