I already started unpicking it because I want to redo it. What do I need to do differently? What did I do wrong (besides not sending it up to mom to quilt)?

Help Me!
What did I do wrong?? I have been tryin to make a table runner, and it all went well until I got to the quilting part. I bought the least lofty batting I could find, I safety pinned it together at the counter, putting safety pins every 5 inches or so. I even practiced quilting pumpkin shapes and was somewhat comfortable with doing them. But it turned out like garbage. The material on top is too bunchy and there are parts that stick up (check out the bottom picture).

My advice would have been to send it to mom. However, if you are trying to learn to quilt, that wouldn't be the most affective.
Oh, but i do love the fabrics you picked out. I want a good quilt shop near me!!
I think it looks fine, but it is hard to tell from the picture. I love the fabrics and the quilting pattern you chose. I hope you get it figured out. Maybe a phone call to mom would help.
Mom gave me some good suggestions so it looks like I will try it one more time. Hopefully it will work out.
