I am sewing my strips together, the 1st two strips looks great, but the 3rd row is curving to the left at the bottom. What is the easiest way to correct this? Thanks for any help.

The only thing I can think of to make it stop curving is to sew one strip in one direction and the next one the opposite. Does that makes sense. I do this when strip piecing. Good luck.

Be very careful with your pressing too :wink:

An article I read earlier today mentioned too tight tension as a reason for curving strips. I know from my own experience that when that last little bit goes through the needle, I tend to rush it so my seams aren't as straight as they are at the top. Alternating seems to offset the curving problem for me since I can't seem to cure my end of the strip wobble problem.
