Fold fabric to match centre back seams with right sides facing. If you are using a serger (overlocker), use a 1- 1.5 stitch length and set your diferential feed to 2.
If you are using a sewing machine, you can use:
· a treble-seaming stitch; if you choose this option, trim the seam allowances after stitching and then overedge them together with a zigzag to prevent them raveling.
· a stretch overcast stitch: there’s no need to then overedge, but after sewing seam trim seam allowances close to overcast stitch line.
· narrow zigzag stitch; sew seam twice for extra strength, and after trimming seam allowances use zigzag again to overedge them together and prevent raveling.
