Sewing tips on straight lines?
Practicing around with French seams, and instead of "railroad track" parallel lines, they are kind of wavy. Not terrible, but enough that it triggers an OCD spasm.
 I'm using a big magnetic seam guide, but I guess my hands are not feeding it correctly. Any hints?

I use an aiming point on the fabric in relation to the foot on the machine, and try to keep that relationship the same throughout the length of the seam.
