Fagoting
Stitching across an open seam is called “fagoting”. It
is used on blouses and children's clothing. This stitch
is more decorative when thicker thread is used.
Use an iron to fold the two pieces of fabric
along their seams.
Baste the two pieces of fabric, separated by
about 4 mm (3/16 inch), onto thin paper or a
sheet of water-soluble stabilizer.
If you draw a line down the middle of the thin
paper or water-soluble stabilizer, sewing is
easier.

Sew with the center of the presser foot aligned
along the center of the two pieces of fabric.
After sewing is finished, remove the paper.
