Blanket Stitch
This stitch will hold raw edges in tact. It first takes a straight stitch on
Background fabric and then takes a bite to the left over the raw edge.
P lace open toe foot on machine and wide hole throat plate. Select
blanket stitch on machine, slow speed, and needle down. My favorite
stitch on my Babylock Auria is #14 at 2 stitch width and 2 stitch
length. This is a tiny stitch relevant to size of heart.
