Yeah, I was wonderfing the same thing! LOL! Since it is 360 degrees, some part of it will be bias no matter what, right?
I stitch circles more slowly and have learned to fractionally turn the fabric when the needle is in the up position....don't ask me how I did this 'cause I don't know!....I also shorten the stitch length just a bit. I watch the front of the presseer foot I use, which has an indent just between the toes, and that let's me keep the circle's edge under the needle just a couple stitch spaces ahead of the needle strike.
