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 4.0 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.
