Covering seams Where seam allowances and serged edges are inconvenient, covering seams are used. These seams are extremely flat, they join bordering fabric plies and serge them at the same time. This produces the typical flatlock effect which lends a professional look to collar plackets or raglan seams. Cross stitch Program 19 Owing to its high elasticity, the cross stitch is very suitable for decorative hems, e.g. on T-shirts and underwear. • Serge the fabric edge. • Baste over the seam margin to the left. • Stitch over the hem from the face side. When doing so, make sure the fabric edge is properly overstitched. I: Fagotting stitch Program 17 With the fagotting stitch you can make very elastic seams with a hemstitching effect, for example on corsetry. • Serge the fabric edges and tack-baste them onto the reverse side. • Lay the edges to be sewn with about 3 mm between them under the sewing foot. • Overstitch from the face side ensuring that the needle perforates both the right and left-hand side pieces of material. TIP: Feeding both fabric edges can be made easier by using the fagot feed (optional extra). It is available in 3-mm and 5-mm widths and is mounted in the hole of the needle plate. 79
