Do stitching from right hand side of the fabric till the left end. After completing, start from the left end, inserting the needle on the same point where the stitch is already formed. Continue the same way from the left to right end. The finished fabric gives continuous X shape stitches. On both the sides stitches appear similar in shape.

3. Welt seam: This is similar to single top stitching, but it is used for bulky fabrics such as wool and coat fabrics. Stitch a plain seam and trim one raw edge to about � width. Press the two raw edges to one side, with the narrow one closed under the wider one. Now stitch on the right side, so that the stitching will come just outside the narrow seam edge, but inside the wider seam edge.
