The Stitch and its Uses
The Shetl Stitch is formed by sewing a
blind hem over folded fabric. Several
rows of shetl stitching are called shetl
tucks.
Shelt stitching can be used to finish
hems, sleeve and neck openings.
Shell tucking can be used to create
scalloped tucks on blouses and
lingerteo
Here's How
1. For best effect:
-- set the stitch length as you
desire.
- you may need to tighten the
top thread tension slightly.
-- allow the needle to iust
clear the folded edge of the
fabric when it zigzags.
2. If you sew rows of shell stitches,
space the rows 5/8" apart,
You can sew Shell Stitch on knits or
soft silky wovens in any direction.
