Stitch

For an ideal zigzag stitch, the bobbin thread does not show on the right side (Top side) of the fabric, and the needle

thread shows slightly on the wrong side (Bottom side) of the fabric.

See the illustrations for the correct appearance.

To match this appearance, adjust the needle tension.

Minimize the amount of needle thread visible on the wrong side (Bottom side) of the fabric without causing excessive puckering, or causing the bobbin thread to show on the right side (Top side) of the fabric.

Results vary with fabric, thread and sewing conditions.
