Sewing Machine Stitches Then and Now in Convention
In a convention discussion the double thread chain stitch is favored for its practical value over the chain stitch in embroidery and fine work. The needle loop forms the base for shuttle action and different machines vary the loop size, affecting stitch quality and fabric handling.
