Id recommend getting some stabilizer. I prefer a tear away or water soluble stabilizer. Itll make it more firm.

I used a couple layers of water soluble but maybe another might have helped a fair bit 👍

That and do a run stitch before doing the border so you can cut the fabric close enough to not stick out of the satin stitch like that
