The satin stitch is often used to decorate and overcast the<br />

raw edge on blankets, linens, tablecloths, and napkins. It is<br />

also attractive in applique.<br />

For best results, test the stitch on the fabric being used.<br />

A tight satin stitch may pucker some lightweight fabrics.<br />
