I think it...I have a great love of curved seams. <br /><br />I think it helps to lift the top piece up. <br /><br />Also, focus your energy on just forcing the two pieces to line up just right at your presser foot and nowhere else. I find the puckers come when I'm trying to make too much of my seam line up at once.Wendyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00730591689231910637noreply@blogger.com
