You could use a basting stitch, something not tight because you don't want it to pucker. Set your machine to the widest stitch.

I have a degree in Fashion Apparel, IN other words I def know how to sew pretty much anything.. We sewed tule... If I remember correctly.. use the number 1 stictch. thats the one that is farthest apart.. you can do a single row or doubl row just be sure that when you are sewing it you dont pull the fabric as it will stretch and get out of shape and possibly pucker!
