*When using Overedge foot, make sure to set the stitch width at 5 or more, otherwise the needle may hit the overedge foot.

This stitch is ideal for 1/4" (0.6 cm) seams on knits or on medium to heavy weight woven fabrics where you want a narrow seam. It is also great for sewing spandex swim wear. Place the fabric under the presser foot [ A] so that the stitches are made over the raw edge.
