The utility stitches contain the following decorative
stitches.
Fagoting
Stitching across an open seam is called “fagoting”. It is used
on blouses and children's clothing. This stitch is more
decorative when thicker thread is used.
a
Use an iron to fold the two pieces of fabric along their
seams.
b
Baste the two pieces of fabric, separated by about 4
mm (3/16 inch), onto thin paper or a sheet of water-
soluble stabilizer.
If you draw a line down the middle of the thin paper or
water-soluble stabilizer, sewing is easier.

the center of the two pieces of fabric.

Scallop stitching
The wave-shaped repeated pattern that looks like shells is
called “scalloping”. It is used on the collars of blouses and to
decorate the edges of projects.
a
Attach monogramming foot “N”.
b
Select stitch .
c
Stitch along the edge of the fabric, making sure not to
sew directly on the edge of the fabric.
• For better results, apply spray starch onto the fabric
and press with a hot iron before it is sewn.
