Overcast is a needlework technique that involves making small zigzag stitches to securely connect two cloth pieces together. This approach gives durability and avoids the material from fraying. The whipstitch can be used for a selection of stitching projects, like sewing the hem, sewing patches, or even making
coverlets. It gives a clean and expert look for the completed item.
