Burda Style For people who sew

Fold edges, for stitching of the edges (e.g. at the hem) use a twin needle. Stitch along the right fabric side using two upper threads and one under thread, using the straight stitch setting. In this case the under thread will appear as zigzag stitch. The result will be that the fabric will not stretch when sewing and the seam will be elastic. (a)
