Fabric shifting during sewing?? Halp! D:

Sewing noob question here: Every time I try and sew some relatively thick fabrics on my machine, the bottom layer always ends up moving a quarter inch or so. I've tried using 10,000 pins but it doesn't seem to make a difference! Does anyone know what's causing this?


Here is a glove liner made from two layers of batting sandwiched between muslin. You can see on the front side that I followed my pink line for the most part.

However, when I flip it....

Whyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy
The whole bottom layer just moved to the left? I can fix this by re-sewing over the bad parts, but I would never do this on a final product or something I was building for another person. It would also ruin something that required a higher degree of accuracy. This only happens with thick items like faux fur or this glove liner and I'm not sure why. Anyone know what's causing it?
