CURVED SEAMS
1. Use a short stitch for elasticity and strength.
For example, if you use 12 stitches to the
inch for straight seams, select 15 to 20 per
inch to stitch curved seams in the same
fabric.
2. If you use the seam guide to guide stitch­
ing, attach it at an angle so that the edge
that is closer to the needle acts as a guide.
