Joining Seam with Double Overlock Stitch

The double overlock stitch can be used to sew two fabric edges together at a distance. This stitch pattern is used to decorate blouses and children's clothing. The decorative effect of this stitch pattern is more striking if thicker thread is used.

  5. Tack the folded edges of two pieces of fabric to a piece of washable lining with a gap of 4 mm.
