When I got the basic machine work done on it, I took it to the ironing board and ironed it. OOPS! Those puckers made for some wrinkles that would not go away.
So I started over.
I kept thinking I needed to try to rescue that yummy fabric and pretty stitching. (((IDEA!))) I needed a nice cover for my Kindle. So I cut a piece and started my usual "just wing it" thing.
Here is how it came out:

Great save Gene! The cover looks perfect...
I don't see any puckers. It looks great. I sometimes iron embroidery items on a terry cloth towel when there's a 'bubble'.
Quilters sure know how resurrect a project. Looks lovely.
It looks TERRIFIC to me, Gene! Good job!
I love this cover the stitching is great
This looks beautiful! I don't see any puckers/buckling, you did a great job 'rescuing' this piece :)
this is lovely! I've seen patterns at connecting threads, but sounds like you made this up? I have one of their portfolio patterns that I make ALOT! but never thought of actually using some of the decorative stitches my machine can do, on these, yours look awesome!
It's so cool that you salvaged what felt like a mistake and made a useful thing that you appreciate everyday!
