After finishing a seam, I cut the threads and they then develop a life of their own...the bobbin thread might curl up and squiggle off to one side while the top thread flies up over the top of the machine. They just absolutely refuse to lie quietly behind the needle where God intended them to be. I've found that the only way I can sew these days is by holding onto both threads at the start of each row of stitches. Any ideas on how I can resolve this dilemma, other than moving to a more humid part of the world?
