Lengthen your stitches to 3 or even 3.5, and use a #14 topstitch needle rather than a " quilting" needle. Next, be sure to support the excess quilt fabric ...either put an ironing board set same height as sewing table, or just pile it on sewing table...don't expect the machine to pull it up from your lap. If your machine doesn't have an extension table, you can make one of styrofoam covered with plastic ( just tape plastic in place).This gives you a bigger surface to place your hands for guiding in a straight line. If you feel you're still getting " hung up" on seams, stop before the seam allowance with needle up, left presser foot, manually move fabric a tad, lower foot, use handwheel to make the stitch & repeat as necessary ( it should take @ 4 stitches).
