This stitch is ideal for 1/4" (0.6 cm) seams on knits or on
medium to heavy weight woven fabrics where you want a
narrow seam. It is also great for sewing spandex swim
wear.
Place the fabric under the presser foot so that the stitches
are made over the raw edge.

Lace adds a fanciful feminine touch to blouses and
lingerie. Table linens and pillows become more elegant
when trimmed with lace.
Fold raw edge of fabric at least 5/6" (1.5 cm). Place the
lace underneath and topstitch with a blind hem stitch.
Trim the excess fabric close to the stitching.
