Waiting tor it just to "ride up with wear" always seemed to work for Mr. Lucas
on "Are You Being Served?" Assuming you didn't touch the wheel cylinders and
had good brakes before, I'd check to see if you put the shoes in correctly,
check for any grease or brake fluid contamination  on the linings and drums,
and if everything is ok, would skim the shoes to match the drums.  Finally you
should bed the shoes as described here:

Alternatively you could try this:

Good luck,

So what's the problem? Should I have the shoes skimmed to suit the drums and
just wait until they ride up with wear?
