I have learned to use my left finger as a guide to try to keep the fabric straight, especially when sewing HST's. Some people use stilettos for this.
I do this, too. As I near the end of a line of sewing, I press my left index finger against the side of the presser foot which seems to keep the fabric from drifting.
