Some sewing machines (older ones) actually don't have the lightening bolt (stretch) stitch but they will very likely have the triple stretch and, as you mentioned, you can also use a small zig zag. My new machine has the lightening bolt stitch and I prefer it as it uses less thread than the triple stretch and is faster and, if you put it on a very small width, it is much less intrusive and easier to iron flat than a zig zag stitch.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8209080131494479770.post-34654858149742713092014-02-23T17:05:21.148+00:002014-02-23T17:05:21.148+00:00Hadn't heard of Sew Grateful before, thank you...Hadn't heard of Sew Grateful before, thank you for the heads up I shall definitely be checking it out.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01590212324752526648noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8209080131494479770.post-55499677492709779102014-02-22T14:15:57.185+00:002014-02-22T14:15:57.185+00:00Cool!

I now refrain from commenting on anyone's pregnancy size as people kept saying how small I was so I got really worried something was wrong, nothing was of course! We'd never comment on people's size otherwise so what is it about pregnancy that makes it a free for all?! I get that it's mostly excitement but I don't think a lot of people think how they can make you worry with their comments. <br />Sew grateful is such a great idea! I'm not sure I can commit to taking part but maybe I'll follow your example and only do it the days I can.
