Use this stitch to join two pieces of fabric to create an
open work appearance, and add design interest.
Fold under each fabric edge 1/2" (1.3 cm) and press.
Pin the two edges to a piece of paper or tear-away
backing 1/8" (0.3 cm) apart.

Paper
Sew slowly, guiding the fabric so the needle catches the
folded edge on each side.
Tear away the backing after sewing is finished.
