I need HELP piecing circles!
I am making a Bullseye quilt along with my quilt group. It entails sewing a circle on a square block but I am noticing that the square portion is wavy....if that makes sense. I am very careful I don't pull on the circle or square fabric, the actual stitches look fine, I don't see any tension issues. Is this common when sewing circles? Thank you, any help will be very appreciated.

Are you sewing the circle into the background fabric? Sharon Schamber has a great tutorial on youtube for inserting a circle into a background square that is machine sewn. If you are machine appliqueing the circle, someone posted a video link last week from an instructor from Craftsy. She prepared a perfect circle using a circle template, fabric and foil. After pressing the circle, it was ready to machine stitch onto the background square.
