Three-Thread Flatlock Narrow
The Flatlock Stitch is used decoratively to achieve the look of applied trim on a garment, craft or home decorator projects. Special decorative threads are used for a textured and dramatic embellishment effect. The Flatlock Stitch can also be used to serge non-bulky seams. The Flatlock Stitch is sewn with one needle and the upper and lower loopers. Both sides of the Flatlocking Stitch are considered decorative. The decorative loop effect is achieved when the Flatlock seams are stitched with the fabrics wrong sides together. The ladder stitch is achieved when the Flatlock seams are stitch with the fabrics right sides together. There are 2 different ways to set up for a Three-Thread Flatlock stitch. For a more narrow stitch (4.0) select the right overedge needle; for a wider stitch (6.0) the left overedge needle is used.
