I pulled out the FMQ on half of a lap quilt once because of puckering. It literally took days.... There was chartreuse colored thread bits all over the house for months!!

It's pretty. I struggle with getting the backing smooth too.

I, too think you are being too hard on yourself. All I see is a nice, warm, comfortable, beautiful quilt.

I think it is beautiful! I read here that someone calls them "kisses" not "puckers." :-) Good for you for sticking to it and finishing it!

It is a beautiful quilt and no one will see the puckers. Just wash it and then enjoy your quilt

You are definitely too hard on yourself...no one will see the puckers when they are snuggled under it! Its bright and beautiful, and I prefer a real, imperfect made item than an absolutely perfect machined quilt.
