DetailsDo you sometimes struggle with maintaining a straight line as you sew? Are you looking for useful tips and tricks for making your sewing life easier? Then you’ve come to the right place! At Sailrite®, we love sharing clever tips we’ve picked up over the years from all of our sewing projects and how-to videos. Today, we’ll show you our method of achieving perfectly straight stitch lines — every time!The trick is to feed fabric smoothly through the machine so you get nice-looking stitches and a straight seam line. The best way to keep your seam line straight is to use your hands to guide the fabric as you sew. If you don’t use your hands to guide the fabric, your seam line will swerve and veer all over the place, especially on larger assemblies with fabric hanging over your sewing surface and weighing down and pulling at the fabric assembly.We’ve found that sewing in short bursts while keeping our hands still and steady on the fabric on either side of the needle results in the straightest stitch lines. If you try to continuously sew and keep the machine running, you’re forced to slide your hands down the fabric as it’s fed through the presser foot. Sliding your hands around can cause your stitching to deviate as you shift and pull at the fabric assembly.Here
