You will find in garment construction that you are doing two types of sewing-
temporary and permanent,
1, Temporary stitching-Usually the longest stitch possible and often done on a
single layer of fabric, The various types of temporary stitching are:
Basting
Stay stitching
Guide line marking
2. Permanent stitching- This is the actual stitching that holds the garment together.
Much of this stitching is visible on the outside of the garment and therefore must
be good looking.
The best length stitch to use for medium weight fabrics is 10-12 stitches per inch.
This is in the middle range of the Stitch Length Control.
You must remember to lengthen the stitch for heavier fabrics, multiple layers of
fabric and thicker seams. Some of these seams are'.
Common two layer seams
Curved two layer seams
Top stitched three layer seams
Top stitched four layer seams
When you have two seams crossing each other with considerable thickness, sew
slowly and carefully so the seam wil! be as strong as possible in this area,
Be sure both threads are drawn back under the presser foot, Lower needle into fabric
about 1/2 inch from beginning of seam, Turn the reverse stitch control clockwise
and stitch in reverse until needle reaches beginning of seam, Release control and
complete seam. When you reach the end, turn the control clockwise and sew back
over 1/2 inch of completed seam.
