You've got that right Cindy! I learned a long time ago [and sometimes remember!] to turn my stitches to extra long length when I have a tricky area to sew where the points or curves are. If you're lucky enough to have that perfect fit the first time, just move your stitch length slightly shorter and go over it once - if not, yank that baby out and do it once [or thrice] more!

btw - never got sick - must really have been an allergy
