Straight Stretch Stitch
for Woven Fabrics
This stitch is wonderful for built-in strength! It is ideal when sewing heavy-
weight fabrics or when it is desired to have a bolder-looking straight stitch. Try
it as a topstitch on jeans, a home decorating project, or when an extra-strong
seam is needed, such as in children’s clothing.
