Looks fine. As the fabric "relaxes" in use, the wrinkles will, too. Great job.

My only suggestion (and it does not refer to the wrinkles, which I believe are just a part of the quilt) is to put more ties on it. You could use white on the white and black on the black so as not to draw attention to them. If your ties are too far apart, the batting will tear and possible ball up.

Very nice. Put it in washing machine a use a gentle cycle if you have. Don't spin dry all of water out. Just get a little of water out of machine. Then remove and hang over something sturdy that won't warp, etc. Smooth it with youe hand.
