After stitching a seam add a seam finish to each seam edge to prevent fraying. Most seam finishes are done on a single thickness of fabric to avoid bulk and make the seam flatter and neater. Here are several ways to finish seams. Serge Each Seam Edge Zigzag Each Seam Edge Use a medium-width zigzag and a medium to short stitch length. Stitch the zig in the fabric and the zag close to or off the cut edge. Zigzagging works best on medium-to heavy-weight fabrics. If zigzagging draws in the seam edge and makes it pucker you may want to choose another seam finish. Use a 3-thread or 4-thread serged overlock stitch pages 108-109 . T I _________ NOTE from NANCY I Edgestitching close to the seam edge is my least favorite option for seam finishing. However this method may be your only choice if you don t own a serger and your machine has problems stitching a zigzag so close to the fabric edge. Edgestitch Close to Each Seam Edge Set the machine to straight stitch. Guide the right edge of the presser foot along the cut edge of the fabric. You may want to adjust the needle position so it s closer to the fabric edge. Stitching is about - 3mm-6mm from the cut edge. NOTE from NANCY OVERCAST GUIDE FOOT ffabric edges always seem to curl and pucker when you zigzag try using an overcast guide foot. t has a center bar in the needle opening that keeps the fabric flat and prevents tunneling while the zigzag goes over the fabric edge.
