  • Machine setup for a 2-needle wide coverhem or 3-thread overlock (ideal for edge tape application)
  • How to insert ⅜" ribbon or tape into the foot slot and adjust the guide
  • Marking placement lines with wash-away or fade-away markers for accurate stitching
  • Proper positioning of fabric and tape under the foot, and lowering needles into place
  • Starting with handwheel stitches for precision, then sewing along marked lines for a clean finish

This technique is perfect for home décor, activewear, or any project needing stretch control and decorative accents.
