Utility stitches and practical sewing
Stretch triple straight stitch
This stitch is used for sewing all seams
where great strength is needed, e.g. inside
trouser seams, crotch and armhole seams.
The stitch is sewn with two stitches
forward and one stitch backward,
forming a seam that does not rip easily.
Also use it when constructing items such
as backpacks for extra strength.
Carefully guide the fabric while sewing as
the fabric moves back and forth.
Zigzag stitch
Simple zigzag stitching is widely used for
overcasting, sewing on buttons etc. Adjust
the stitch length to suit your sewing needs.
Note: Use a stabilizer for stretch fabrics such
as tricot and knits to prevent puckering.
Overcasting
In addition to overlock stitching, zigzag
stitch D, is also suitable for overcasting
various materials. In this case, the
material should only be positioned
halfway under the sewing foot.
When overcasting the edge, make sure the
needle goes into the material and over the
edge alternately.
When sewing with the overcasting foot
C, the thread lies over pin (A), guide the
edge of the fabric along guide (B). This
prevents curling of the fabric
edge. In this way you can sew
beautiful smooth seams.
Note: Do not set the stitch
width less than 5 when using the
overcasting foot C, otherwise the
needle may hit the foot causing the
needle to bend or break.
