MULTI-STITCH ZIGZAG
This is a strong stitch because as its name implies, it makes
three short stitches where the normal zig-zag makes only one.
For this reason it is recommended for overcasting nearly all
types of fabrics.
It is also ideal for bartacks, mending tears, patching, sewing
towelling and attaching flat elastic.

side up so that the zigzag part of the stitch sews just over the
folded edge, pulling the fabric in to form a shell hem. Trim
away excess fabric close to the stitching line.

Helpful Hint: For a variety in appearance experiment
with different width, length and tension settings.
NOTE:
Mending a tear or overedging as shown in

EDGE-JOINING STITCH
This is a popular decorative stitch (used in sleeves or fronts of
blouses and dresses). To attach two separate pieces of fabric
together, leave a little space in between.
To prepare the fabric: Fold under the seam allowances on the
cut edges, and press. Baste folded edges to tissue paper with
about 1/8" (0.3 cm) space between. Stitch over the 1/8" (0.3
cm) allowance, just catching the fabric fold on both sides with
needle. Remove bastings and paper; press.
