Lately I've been enjoying making stars but have encountered a problem in the chain piecing that I hope one of you will have an answer for. When sewing from a point it is easy for the tip end to get bound up, I understand that beginning with a starter piece of fabric is supposed to eliminate this, but it doesn't always and I end up ripping the end apart. Maybe it's just my inexperience on the sewing machine, still I feel there has to be a simple solution that I'm just missing. Any hints?
