The Stitch and Its Uses

The Shell Stitch is formed by sewing a

blind hem over folded fabric. Several rows of shell stitching are called shell tucks.

Shelf stitching can be used to finish hems, sleeve and neck openings.

Shell tucking can be used to create

scalloped tucks on blouses and lingerte,

Here's How

1.For best effect:

--set the stitch length as you des_re.

--you may need to tighten the top thread tension sfightly.

- altow the needle to just clear the folded edge of the fabric when it zigzags.

2.if you sew rows of shell stitches, space the rows 1/2" apart.

You can sew Shell Stitch on knits or soft silky wovens m any direction.
