The satin stitch is often used to decorate and to overcast a raw edge on blankets, linens, tablecloths, napkins, etc. It is also attractive in applique.

Once your machine is set up to stitch, test stitch on the fabric being used, for best results. A tight satin stitch may pucker some lightweight fabrics.
