The Stitch and Its Uses
Use this attractive scallop stitch to create
scallop edges or decorate your sewing
projects, such as collars, pockets or
placemats. You can create a delicate
appearance on thin fabrics, such as chiffon,
using a single layer of fabric with a tear-away
backing for support while stitching.
You can also use this scallop stitch to sew
decorative edgings on the hemlines of dresses
or sleeves.

Sew your scallops at least 3/8" from the folded edge.
After stitching, trim fabric close to the stitching. Be careful not to cut the
thread.
Helpful Hints
For thin fabrics:
Use a single layer of fabric with a tear-away backing for support while stitching.
For hemlines and sleeves:
Use a tear-away backing, if necessary.
For collars, pockets or craft projects:
Place interfacing between the layers of fabric to provide stiffness.
