Overlockers & Coverstitchers / Re: Double CoverStitch
« on: April 14, 2019, 15:43:37 PM »
That’s interesting because I don’t think even the top of the range BabyLock model does that. I have studied the stitch chart for the two top BabyLocks and they don’t seem to show that type of stitch. Unless anyone knows any different?

Overlockers & Coverstitchers / Double CoverStitch

Are there any domestic machines which are capable of producing a coverstitch on both sides of the fabric? I really like this look.

Everything works, the style, the fit and the fabric. Well done.

I know what you mean about the aging brain. Does anyone else have to turn the radio off if they need to study a complicated section of pattern instruction.

Yes both my Pfaff and Brother start from the bottom when sewing a buttonhole, and I agree that you get a better idea of placement if you mark the top position. But since I always do a test sew out I know the size of the buttonhole and so also mark the bottom of the buttonhole. That way I can start at the bottom point of the buttonhole. This works for me because both machines do really good repeat buttonholes.
