What is a Satin Stitch?

A satin stitch or damask stitch is a series of flat stitches that are used to completely cover a section of the background fabric. The stitches are laid side by side, evenly and closely together, creating a large, smooth, satiny area- hence its name. A satin stitch can be used as a decorative stitch or to affix one piece of fabric to another.

To get a better understanding, watch a video of SFERRA's satin stitch on a set of Grande Hotel sheeting, here: Satin Stitch
