Overcasting
q Stitch pattern:
w Needle thread tension: A
e Presser foot: Zigzag foot: A
Overedge foot: C
This zigzag variation is very useful in garment
construction and in finishing raw edges of any sewing
project.
z The black ridge and the guide wires on the overedge
foot keep the edge neat and the fabric straight.
x Place your fabric so that the double guide wires come
to the edge. The machine will stitch over these wires.
The black ridge will keep the loose threads in so that
the needle can stitch over them.
c As you sew, be sure your fabric edge pushes up
against the black ridge.
NOTE:
When using an Overedge foot, make sure to set the
stitch width between 5 and 7, otherwise the needle may
hit the overedge foot.
