I started using the 2 setting for working on curved piecing and have never changed it back, I like the smaller stitch. It seams to make a neater seam when pressing.
peace
EDIT: Iforgot to say that I do go up to 2.5 when binding or sewing thicker fabric. The longer stitch works better through three layers.
