When I stitch it it comes with "little bumps" in the roun and in the pics it shoews it in the length up and down

what am I doing wrong?

Its probably a silly thing but I'm confused

Please help.

Ok, are you doing the BPDC's correctly? I know the first few times I did a pattern with these I messed up. This kind of a stitch raises the stitch a bit.
Here's a link (http://www.jpfun.com/reference/stitches/fpbpd.shtml) to an instruction on this stitch. Hope this helps!

How many rows have you done total? What part isn't coming out right?

Sometimes a project doesn't look right until you get into it aways. Without a better explanation I don't know what help anyone will be. If you think it looks wrong, take a pic of what you've completed and that may help us help you.

Donna You are absolutly right I'm just about done with the bottom and it looks pretty good actually it looks really good .
I guess it wasn't just the stitch I jumped the gun I guess I need to be more self confident Thanks so very much for your help., withiut it I would not have continued.
BTW Annies Attic has a great video of the stitches.
I would show you a pic but have no clue as what to do . maybe my kids will help when they get home Thanks

On the Annies Attic web site they have to the left side of their page stitch help think that would be a great place to check about your stitch.. It also has a quick video on the stitches.
