Shelltuck Stitch
q Stitch pattern:
w Needle thread tension:
e Presser foot:
Use a lightweight fabric (tricot, for example). Fold the
fabric as shown and stitch on the fold. Allow the needle
to just clear the folded edge to create a shelled edge.
You may need to increase the needle thread tension
slightly.
If you sew rows of shell stitches, space the rows at least
5/8˝ (1.5 cm) apart. You can also sew shell stitches on
knits or soft silky woven fabrics, in any direction.
