Use a light weight 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.
If you sew rows of shell stitches, space the rows at least
1.5 cm (5/8) apart.
You can also sew shell stitches on knits or soft silky
woven fabrics in any direction.
