Welcome

I am wondering about the built up of sticky from the tape on the presser foot and parts of the sewing machine.

Masking Tape here is that made of paper. Painters use it.

It doesnot let any sticky residues on the cotton or canvas. And you must to remove the tape just before touch the presser foot. By that time it do it job. Stop the sewing, takeoff the tape, continue sewing.

And Don't Ironing the tape.

have any of you tried waxed freezer wrap? It is an old quilters trick. Trace pattern on paper side of freezer wrap, iron on fabric, cut out, peel off.

It works for holding down stubborn seams. I just stitch through it, then peel off.

and the wax does NOT stay on the fabric
