I start at one end with a seam ripper and work toward the center. Then I start from the other end and work toward the center. It takes a little practice to make sure the two lines meet straight, but it does eliminate the problem of overshooting. This is for buttonholes; I haven't done slashes. --Robin _______________________________________________ h-costume mailing list h-costume@mail.indra.com http://mail.indra.com/mailman/listinfo/h-costume
