The zigzag stitch is one of the most common and versatile
stitches. It can be a utility stitch for button sewing,
buttonhole making, hemming, overcasting, mending and
darning.
It can also be used to decorate with trims, appliques and
cut work or as a decorative stitch.

The satin stitch is often used to decorate and overcast the
raw edge on blankets, linens, tablecloths, and napkins. It is
also attractive in applique.
For best results, test the stitch on the fabric being used.
A tight satin stitch may pucker some lightweight fabrics.
