Use this stitch to join two pieces of fabric to create an open work appearance, and add design interest. Fold under each fabric edge 1/2" (1.3 cm) and press. Pin the two edges to paper or tear-away backing 1/8" (0.3 cm) apart. Sew slowly, guiding the fabric so the needle catches the folded edge on each side.
