Sewing a onesie?
Hi ladies 
I was making my son's onsies into regular t-shirts and I was wondering why the fabric looks ummm "flowery" from the bottom? Am I doing something wrong? It looks like its warped 
I only did one and I totally screwed it up! Please help!!
TIA!

No formatter is installed for the format bbhtml
Re: Sewing a onesie?
It sounds like you stretched the knit while sewing. Sewing knit is a bit different than sewing woven fabric. If you google "tips for sewing knits" you'll find several websites that give some great suggestions.
In a nutshell, you want to use a ballpoint needle and a stretch/zigzag stitch. No pulling the fabric either. A double needle would be another great solution.

Thank you so much!
It sounds like the fabric is being stretched.
If you are working on a serger, you need to adjust the differential feed. If you are working on a regular machine, you may need to decrease the pressure on the presser foot.
