Variation of Zigzag Stitches
• Overcasting
1
Stitch pattern: 05
2 Presser foot: Overedge foot C
This zigzag variation is very useful in garment construc-
tion and in finishing raw edges of any sewing project.
1. The black ridge and the guide wires on the overedge
foot keep the edge neat and the fabric straight.
2. Place your fabric so that the double guide wires
come to the edge.
The machine will stitch over these wires. The black
ridge and brush will keep the loose threads in so that
the needle can stitch over them.
3. As you sew, be sure your fabric edge pushes up
against the black ridge.
• Tricot stitch
1
Stitch pattern: 06
2 Presser foot: Foot A
This stitch can be used to prevent stretch material edges
from fraying, when sewing folded fabric.
A second method is to keep an extra space allowance
from the fabric edge and after finishing the sewing, cut
the extra seam allowance edge as shown.
