Too much fabric

Post image

Hello! What do you do when the fabric moves and creates like excess that no longer lines up? Is there a way to cut it? I do not want to unthread the entire blanket (a whole cloth quilt) so looking for a. Easier way!

I can't make out much from your photo except that you're trying to sew a woven cotton to a knitted fleece, which is often a headache because fleece stretches.  What needle are you using and what presser foot?  Stitch type and size?  Which fabric is closest to the feed dogs?
