The fabric I am using is just broadcloth (poly/cotton), so it is not slippery or anything. I think I will just off- set the pcs a bit so that when I get to the end they will line up :)!!! Had it happen when sewing quilt blocks together too, trying to get the seams to nest, and when I would open the blocks the seams would be apart instead of nested. I think there is a way to sew them so that the seams are pushed together, but I have not taken the time to figure that one out. It would all depend on the direction the seams are pressed and the direction they are placed when sewing them together.
I seem to have fixed the Brother tension issue (PTL), now to get things worked out w/the others.
Thanks for the help.

PS...nancy, that is a pretty machine you got, and a great price! I hear those 3/4 treadles are hard to find so you have a gem now!!!
