UTILITY STITCHES
■ Fagoting
Available on models with the following
stitches.
Stitching across an open seam is called
“fagoting”. It is used on blouses and children's
clothing. This stitch is more decorative when
thicker thread is used.
a
Use an iron to fold the two pieces of
fabric along their seams.
b
Baste the two pieces of fabric, separated
by about 4 mm (3/16 inch), onto thin
paper or a sheet of water soluble
stabilizer.
If you draw a line down the middle of the
thin paper, or water soluble stabilizer,
sewing is easier.
