This stitch can be used for sewing fabrics that tend to
fray extensively such as linens and gabardines.
Two rows of zigzag stitches are simultaneously sewn
over the edge to ensure that your seams will not ravel.
Adjust the thread tension so both the needle and bobbin
threads meet at the edge of the fabric.

Place your fabric to allow a 1.5 cm seam. Trim excess
close to the stitching. Be careful not to cut the stitches.
CAUTION:
Stitch width should be set between 5.5 and 7.0,
otherwise the needle may hit the overedge foot.
The blue tipped needle is recommended for stretch
materials.
