How to get the Triple Cover Decorative stitch used in ready made exercise wear

 

 

I have added a video to my Tutorials page on how to serge Triple Cover Stitch on exercise wear as seen in ready made garments.

 

  The advantage of this seam is that the seam is flat and causes no chaffing.  It is also a quick and easy method and is economical on fabric. 

 

The Decorative under side of Cover Stitch can be seen on the right side of the garment and  the raw edge is enclosed under the stitching.

 

Simplicity 1332A.  I just do not do hemming on frills...I always use a decorative thread and a rolled hem. 

 

 In this case I used Wonderfil Eleganza from the Sue Spargo range which I sell in my website store.  I particularly like the Sue Spargo range because all the colors are chosen by an artist, Sue Spargo which I think makes this range so colorful and exciting.

 

  Eleganza is 100% cotton so ideal on clothing and the thickness is #8.  It sews perfectly if you use it in the Upper or Lower Loopers. 

 

 In this case I used it in the Upper Looper with a Rolled Edge stitch.  The variegated color mix is `Go-Getter`. 

 

 I cannot resist the variegated mixes.
