Gunny, do you have a needle up/needle down button? If so use the needle down so when you pivot your fabric it should continue sewing smoothly for you. When piecing or any straight stitching the single hole plate is the way to go. The zig zag plate is great for everything else. As mentioned make sure you have a good needle without burrs or dull. All these things plus making sure your tension is adjusted properly will solve the problem.
