I guess it's not really applique, but I'm zig-zagging around all seams in a dresden plate and can't make the end points look right at all. I've heard to make sure the needle is farthest away before pivoting, but that leaves a "blank" at the end of the point. Doing it the other way doubles up the stitches and that almost worse. (Maybe I've got that backwards.) Anyway, any pointers? Do I lift the presser foot and scoot back manually? Which direction and where and when? Help! This is an important project!
