    I don't mind that I Stitch Approximately In The Ditch, that my points don't always match, that I don't have the exact right color thread, that I can't stipple to save my life. BUT, I HATE MY PUCKERS! The walking foot, basting carefully, more tension, less tension, whatever. It is of no avail. I'm like the kid in "Sixth Sense": I see puckers everywhere.

    I hate when seams don't match up. I try to let it go. I really do. But I usually rip and restitch. I haven't had too much trouble with puckers but I'm sure I will on my next project just because I said that. lol

    "I see puckers. They don't know they're puckers." I love that movie. :mrgreen:

    I think I'm capable of climbing tall mountains; when, in fact, I'm lucky to make it to the corner...
