Treating Puckers

I try to be 'friendly' with all puckers I had made on my quilt this week.
Look at this.....

I thought at first because I didn't use walking foot or a kind of fabric glue spray before batting that usually I see on other quilter's block (is it true?). Or maybe it's just my skill hasn't reached "no puckers" level yet :)
I remember that one of my new blogger friend Nina-Marie said she didn't use walking foot either, just regular foot with feed dogs up but having no problem in quilting. She said maybe because I used poly batt, not cotton batt so the foot doesn't move easier / smooth sometimes (and made puckers??)
There's no quilt store even less cotton batt here :(
Buying online would be very expensive, afraid!)
Well, I try my best in treating those puckers. This is the pic after I sew more organic lines in most of the area. Looks better :


Give up? No way....
Still in progress, hope I can finish this quilt next week.

Blue or Orange or both?


I was quilting this new piece this afternoon starting from the middle with cream thread and trying organic lines between blocks. One of Jacquie's quilting has inspired me to sew these lines (thanks Jacquie!)
Now for the both of the sides I want to try another color of thread, but gosh... I was so afraid to start!
Should I pick the blue, orange or both of them ?



About the scrap bag..it has done. Yay!!
