Avoid Fabric Shifting



Slippery fabrics like silk, satin, chiffon, or polyester can be very hard to machine sew. Here are a few tips to help you manage them:

• Use a piece of tissue paper under the fabric and tear off when finished

• Use a walking foot to help feed the fabric evenly.

• Fabric clips instead of pins can help secure a firm hold

• Increase stitch length

• Opt for a lighter presser foot pressure

• Use basting stitches to temporarily hold layers together for easier sewing
