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.
Overcasting Stitch

This is useful in garment construction and in finishing raw
edges of any sewing project.
Start overcasting about 1/8” (0.3 cm) inside the raw corner
of a seam. If you start right at the edge, fabric bunches up
and the stitches become tangled.
