Wow thanks for this info, not me asking the question but I will be sure to remember this tip. Since my last border was wavy and I could not figure out why, now I know. :-D
i didn't know that (now of course, I don't have enough length left from my fabrics to DO that on the borders I need to do tonight :lol: ).
