Lots of ways that things may have gone wrong. Definitely, we need a picture. Is it lace or applique, for example, and have you added a backing fabric to hide the back of the embroidery? If that's what went wrong, the fabric for the backing needs to be placed under the hoop before the final (outline) satin stitch.
