I never thought of that. Thanks, I will try it. Another thing we used to do in home ec, back in the dark ages - we would pull diagonally on our piece (opposite corner to corner) and that will help square it.
I sure remember doing that in Home Ec.! I still do it now if it needs to be done. Lots to be said for the dark ages.LOL
