Sewing a curve with a zigzag stitch

Set the stitch length short in order to obtain a fine stitch. Sew slowly while keeping the seam parallel to the fabric edge as you guide the fabric around the curve.

*For sharp corners, temporarily stop sewing with the needle in the material, then raise the presser foot and carefully turn the fabric while keeping it level with the presser foot. Lower the presser foot and continue sewing.
