The wave-shaped repeating pattern, that looks like shells, is called "scalloping". It is
used to decorate the collar of blouses and the edges of knitting projects.

Scallop edging
Stitch along the edge of the fabric, making
sure not to sew directly on the edge of the
fabric.
For better results, apply spray starch onto the
fabric and press with a hot iron before it is
sewn.
Trim along the stitches, be careful not to cut
the stitches.
Shell tuck stitching
Use a lightweight fabric (tricot, for example).
Fold the fabric along the bias.
When the needle swings to the right, allow
the needle to just clear the folded edge of the
fabric.
After stitching, open the fabric and iron press
the tucks flat to one side.
