Texture. Why is my Texture only working in the middle and not all around the surface? How do I join?

    I see two issues:

    1. the circles on the curved part aren't merged
    The circles of the curve aren't merging because they aren't actually intersecting the body. To fix that, make the circles actually move into the body by a small amount. Click "add configuration" and move them in a bit.

    2. you probably want a single texture all the way around, but you can only do one face at a time.

    To do that you need to manually build a single surface to use as your input. Use the Fit Spline feature in Edge mode to create one curve from your profiles then sweep or loft it to create a base surface for the Texture feature. I just tested it, but your inputs aren't tangent continuous (the curves actually slightly come to a point forming a crease). You need to update your input curves to be tangent, then do the Fit Spline thing.
