Before we started piecing I tried to make sure both machines where set exactly the same for the quarter inch seam. And then when as we sewed the rows together we pinned each seam, its time consuming, but I find that it saves ripping time. Even though we had our machines exactly the same we still ended up with some seams larger. So the pinning and putting the side with the most "baggy bottoms" on the bottom side when sewing helped to ease in the fabric. A couple of small puckers but nothing that was really noticeable. I'm teaching her to quilt, so its best to start out with good habits such as pinning and checking your seam allowance every time. Hope this helps.
