Satin Stitch Foot
Closely spaced zigzag stitches are called satin
stitches. This is an attractive
stitch used for
appliqueing,
bar tacking.
Whenever
you are using this stitch, it is well
to remember
to loosen the tension of the top
thread
slightly.
The
wider
the
stitch
you
make, the looser the tension should be.
If you are stitching on a very soft fabric, use a
backing of tissue paper or interfacing
for
a
well formed
stitch.
Puckering of the material
will be eliminated
and the bobbin thread will
not be visible on the right side of the fabric.
As with all special stitches, it is best to make
a sample design on your fabric before starting
the design on the garment.
