Who’s got some tips for me? I can never get them looking good.... problem seems to be when I have climbed out of a corner and trying to stretch and start to get out of the corner. Always ends up being curved instead of a nice straight intersecting lines...... because I lack in the skill I usually stop short of the corner and restart after the corner, it’s better but still doesn’t look professional.

@Revv Up ,

I am with you on this one and myself shred the corner salvage to bits almost to ease the sewing, not to mention turning the wheel by hand at that point.

This is so hard to explain through typing...
Try not holding the material flat on the machine. The part that you are sewing the the top stitch to should lay flat but the other piece will be sticking straight up.
