Feather Stitch

When sewn over a seam the feather stitch

reinforces stretch and woven fabrics with a

strong decorative stitch. It can be used to sew

spandex undergarments or decoratively hem

elastic fabric. Another common use for the

feather stitch is patchwork quilting.

When you work with the feather stitch, you

can sew the pattern on a seam that is already

joined and pressed flat, or you can butt two

edges and use just the feather stitch to join

them.
