I'm working on a Naversom sample, which ends up with a very easily stretched outer edge. So, I want to finish the piece with a turned hem - (which I already know how to do.) I'd like to try adding some sort of stitch to the outer fold line and see if it prevents the stretching at the corners that I'm guessing will happen. I don't want anything decorative (like a picot edge) - just a stitch to add stability. Can anyone tell me what kind of stitch is used for this purpose? Or any other tips to help prevent stretching?
Somewhere in my library, I have some instructions on how to do this, but I thought it would be quicker to just ask for advice.
Thanks for your help.
