    Thanks for the info. I too had puckering even with the walking foot. I'm making another table runner and this time I'll follow everyones good advice.

    I've made a couple table runners using that method and I found the walking food works best. I also have a mark on my walking foot that shows me where the 1/4" seam allowance should be, and it's pretty accurate.

    also if every other row you sew in the opposite direction, that helps with wavyness

    Like lynnie said. It will help to do one line in one direction & the next line start from the opposite direction. Doing this alond with the longer stitch & walking foot should solve your problem.
