Jh^Stitch and Its Uses
Use this stitch to join two pieces of
fabric
to
create
an
open
work
appearance and add design interest.
Here's How
1.
Fold under each fabric edge 5/8"
and press.
2.
Pin the two edges to paper or
tear away backing 1/8" apart.
3.. Sew slowly, guiding the fabric
so the needle catches the folded
edge on each side.
Use as hemming stitch for blankets,
tablecloth and draperies.
Place the fabric top side up, and sew
3/8" from the edge.
Trim close to stitching. The stitch will
prevent raveling.
