Flat Joining Seam
• fabric edges are overlapped and the
stitch is placed on the seam allowance
which produces a very flat, durable
seam
• ideal for fluffy, thick materials such as
terry cloth, felt and leather
Sewing
• sew stretch overlock along the fabric
edge
• the stitch should sew over the edge of
the top layer of fabric on the right swing
of the needle
Knits and jersey
• use a new Jersey needle to
prevent damaging the loops
Sewing stretch fabrics
• if neccessary use a stretch
needle (130/705H-S) =
needle point slides between
the fibers
Fabric and thread
When using a matching thread
color, this seam is hardly visible
in fluffy fabrics.
