What is a covering stitch?
You can use the following programs for
sewing a flat covering seam. This produces a
so-called "flatlock effect" which lends a pro-
fessional look to collar plackets or raglan
seams.

Feather stitch
With the feather stitch you can sew highly
elastic materials with an effect similar to that
of hem stitching, e.g. foundation wear.
- Serge the fabric edges and baste them
over.
- Lay the edges to be sewn underneath the
pressing foot with a distance between the
edges of about 3 mm.
- Overstitch from the face side, ensuring that
the needle perforates the material both
right and left.
