The zigzag stitch is one of the most common and versatile
stitches. It can be a utility stitch for button sewing,
buttonhole making, hemming, overcasting, mending and
darning.
It can also be used to decorate with trims, appliques and
cut work, or as a decorative stitch.

This stitch is useful in garment construction, and in finishing
the raw edges of any sewing project.
Start overcasting about 1/8"(0.3 cm) inside the raw corner
of a fabric. The right tip of the stitch should just clear the
fabric edge.
